DCD 015 - Holiday Special, Part 1

This is the first of two special programs featuring music for the holidays. In this podcast, we journey from England to Mexico to Latvia and finally land back home in America. All the selections come from releases available through DCD Records -- and if you listen carefully to the program, you might not hear the sound of reindeer, but you will hear about our special gift to you.

Christmas is my favorite season, and I really enjoyed putting this two-part program together. I hope these selections bring you pleasure.
