I'm heading to a Christmas party gathering of friends and no doubt there will be torturous Christmas songs playing in the background, so I'll be sneaking in a Christmas Score playlist to show them some real Christmas music.

 

Does anyone have recommendations? I'll kick things off with an obvious one from the Maestro;

Yes, I did a whole show about it. Here:

But it's in Norwegian, so you'll have to suffice with the playlist:

 

Home Alone 2: Alone in New York (1992) — “Home Alone”/”Star of Bethlehem” — John Williams
A Christmas Carol (1938) — “Prelude & Threadneedle Street” — Franz Waxman
A Christmas Carol (2009) — “Main Title” — Alan Silvestri
The Snowman (1982) — “Walking in the Air” — Howard Blake
Santa Claus: The Movie (1985) — “Every Christmas Eve – Instrumental” — Henry Mancini
Ben Hur (1959) — “Star of Bethlehem”/”Adoration of the Magicians” — Miklos Rozsa
National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation (1989) — “Christmas Vacation” — Barry Mann & Cynthia Weil
Miracle on 34th Street (1994) — “Main Title” — Bruce Broughton
The Lion in Winter (1968) — “The Christmas Wine” — John Barry
Scrooged (1988) — “Suite” — Danny Elfman

Yes I am compiling a playlist for Christmas now and I would also love suggestions!

 

So far I am thinking 'The Nexus' from Star Trek: Generations, 'Christmas at Hogwarts' from Philosopher's Stone, 'A Winter's Tale' from Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, 'Winterfell' theme from Game of Thrones...I am in the preliminary stages, I'm sure there are so many better ones and things I'm not thinking of.

My "modern" classical Christmas playlist, with bits of John Williams.

 

 

There's some great stuff in here! I enjoy those Piano Guys tracks, nice modern instrumental Christmassy sounds.
