Program Description
Event Details
Encore Recording is viewable for 7 days until December 29th.
Learn the differences between a Christmas Carol and a Christmas Song and we examine who wrote the lyrics and melodies, why they were written, and what they really mean. Using audio and video, Barbara Barrett shares which Christmas carols and songs are forms of worship, educational tools, secular entertainment, forms of protest, political commentary, or outright marketing gimmicks. Discover the artists whose recordings transformed Christmas carols and songs into Billboard hits also will be featured. Come and explore music for “the most wonderful time of the year!”
