With Original Masters now well established as a series and brand, we think it's time for some spin-offs. One is The Singles (474 576-2), the other is Original Masters - The Christmas Album.

The Christmas Album celebrates an old-style German Christmas with the stars of the 1950s, with works by J. S. Bach, Corelli, Cornelius, Gruber, Handel, Mergner, Reger, Schubart and a whole range of traditional Christmas Carols and Songs, including medleys, performed by names like the Don Kosaken Chor Serge Jaroff, Fischer-Dieskau, Lehmann, Prey, K. Richter, Schneiderhan, Seefried, Stader, Streich, Walcha, Wenzinger and Wunderlich.

Many of the recordings are appearing on CD for the first time - many rarities that the collector will die for.

The delightfully cute cover image sets the style and atmosphere right away, and this is further developed in the fully-illustrated booklet.

NOSTALGIA is the chief note here - let your customers bring back memories of Christmas the way it once was, in the relatively innocent days of the 1950s.
Full 2-CD set packed in a brilliant box at budget price.

du fröhliche, o du selige
Übers Gebirg Maria geht
Benedixisti Domine
Hodie Christus natus est
Jesulein zart
Es ist ein Ros' entsprungen
Von der Geburt Christi - O Freude über Freude
Heilige Nacht
Quem pastores laudavere
Vom Himmel hoch, da komm ich her
Wie schön singt uns der Engel Schar
Still, o Himmel
Es blühen die Maien

Freu dich Erd' und Sternenzelt
schlafe, schlafe, göttlicher Knabe
Auf dem Berge, da geht der Wind
Adeste fideles
Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht

It is Miss Tebaldi’s wish, and ours, that this recording will be a source of joy to all members of all families at the Christmas Festival.”
