[Dixielandjazz] Dixieland Christmas

[Gluetje1 at aol.com]

A comment before I come to the point of my post.  The comment is,  It's 
true some people can 'sing the phonebook'.  I have never liked O  Tannenbaum 
for as long as I can remember.  Today I had a  collection of Christmas bests 
playing from a CD when I was suddenly  immensely enjoying a rendition of O 
Christmas Tree.  Stunned I checked to  see why.  It was being sung by Mario 
Lanza!
 
Also just re-found and enjoyed playing a CD that I've had for a decade  or 
so entitled, Dixieland Christmas.  Obviously arranged, but darn  good 
arrangements in my opinion.  So today I went googling on  the producer, Green Hill 
Productions.  They sell the  orchestrations of  a few of the tunes.  Below 
is the web site  where you can listen to some samples and get some details 
on available  orchestrations.
