Leipzig, London, Salzburg, Paris, Dresden, and Rome are the European music centres from which these Christmas season compositions come.

With empathy and skill, the editor, an experienced practitioner as a cantor and leader of instrumental groups, selected the pieces, transposed them, and arranged them for this instrumentation.
