'Tis the season for Christmas music - but not the ghastly commercialized muzak that bombards us from every direction. Let's go back to 1912, and Vaughn Williams' "Fantasia on Christmas Carols".
Much more seasonal (not to mention spiritual!).

the time changes in this piece are amazing!
Beautiful
I love this fantasia by Ralph Vaughan Williams! Thanks for bringing it to my remembrance!
In the spirit of sharing good music, may I recommend a channel which you might enjoy? Ben Maton - The Salisbury Organist - an organist who goes around to old or abandoned churches in England and plays their organs and gives a bit of the history of the organ, the church, or the song he's playing.
