On Day 11 of our Holiday Countdown, members of the Bach Elgar Choir share some of their favourite holiday music!
Cheryl Oudyk can’t let a holiday go past without watching and listening to the Nutcracker Suite.
Community Board Member Jeffery Holk and his family love the Christmas Song by Nat King Cole and The Christmas Waltz by Frank Sinatra.
Susan Arena needs a little Carol of the Bells to make it through the holidays and who can blame her!
Our Board Chair Jane Savage and her family love Once in Royal David’s City and always run through Michael Bublé Christmas Album and anything by King’s College Cambridge Choir.
Although Kathryn Newell really likes most of the traditional Christmas carols, one of her favourite songs is actually Little Drummer Boy by David Bowie and Bing Crosby. Kathryn’s Dad sang like Crosby and this carol brings her joy as it brings back warm memories of her father, his love for music and that love influenced her life in music.
Maija Saari’s #1 pick was also Little Drummer Boy by Crosby and Bowie! Her favourite holiday album, though, is definitely The Best Christmas Album in the World…Ever! by a crew of greats, too many to list!
