Christmas morning playlist - what are you playing?

[windhoek]

I'll be starting off with Christmas Songs by Diana Krall. After that, I might play some classical music although I'm not sure what that will be.

Anyway, Diana Krall, here I come

 

[windhoek]

Now playing Stravinsky Petrouchka-Rachmaninov Symphonic Dances. Okay, it's not festive music per se but it sounds seasonally appropriate all the same

 

[GJO]

Will be spinning this after breakfast.

Earlier this morning (3am) - Traces of You - Anoushka Shankar.
Currently Swan Lake on BBC4, new production, seen it twice already and tickets for two more performances in the new year. Nunez is on the TV, seeing her do Onegin soon.

Don't have a cultural bone in my body.

Was listening to this and other prog goodies.

I don't do Christmas!
I am currently in Kolkata.....
I spent Christmas Morning in a Salvation Army Church being churched in Bengali (I don't do Church!)
I spent most of the rest of the day in traffic!
To cope I donned my headphones and zoned out with a mixture of Popol Vuh, Jon Hassell and David Sylvian.

HELP!

I was last in Kolkata in 2008 and it was a spectacular dump. Is it still?

Festive listening discovery was that John Renbourn and Planxty sounds remarkably festive without actually being so. Although my sister-in-law described it as 'Henry the Eighth music'. Note to self: really must get that stag's head and suit of armour to complete the banqueting/listening room.

 

[Frankiesays]

Some Jazz, but missus told me to turn it off.

 

[Elephantears]

I always listen to 'Unknown Pleasures' on Christmas Day; it's the necessary negation. This year, lots of acid techno too.
