First Christmas Morning

Dan Fogelberg's first Christmas album is a smartly informed collection of familiar holiday hymns, carols, and deliciously original music inspired by the Renaissance period. The standard interpretations such as "I Saw Three Ships" and "O Tannenbaum" prove satisfying and enjoyable. "At Christmas Time," a Fogelberg original, sounds as if it were lifted from Dickens's A Christmas Carol, while the peaceful and bright "Winterskol" and other simple guitar pieces make The First Christmas Morning a truly great holiday find. Extra points to Fogelberg for unearthing such beautiful music as the 15th-century carol "This Endris Night." Recommended. --Martin Keller more

Exquisite!

I'm not sure which I enjoy more--the melodies or the lyrics--of these beautiful Christmas songs. The cd is worth the purchase price for Dan's rendition of "What Child Is This" alone. His original compositions "Christ the King" and the title song "First Christmas Morning" are new favorites at my...
