Well, now that we have complete 100 posts and are approaching 3,000 pageviews on this fledgling little blog, I wanted to take the opportunity to thank you all (however many of you there actually are) for reading and even, occasionally, commenting. I hope you've enjoyed it as much as I have!
That said, I did also want to apologize for abandoning my cyber post for all of fifteen days this month. As it turns out, finals and then the always-fascinating preparations for Christmas have selfishly consumed fifteen of my December days, and I don't think I can expect them back. In any event, I have a little spare time this morning, and so I wanted to share with you some more Christmas music, which is one of my favorite kinds of music in general.
Here, the "Carol of the Bells" by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra (first), Celtic Woman (second), and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir (third). The TSO version, as should be expected, features a modern rock-guitar twist, but I think it works. I also like the Irish fiddle solo superimposed onto the traditional melody in the Celtic Woman rendition. And, of course, the Mormon Tabernacle singers are simply superb. Which version do you like best?
TSO
Celtic Woman
Mo Tab
