A WINTER GARDEN by Loreena McKennitt is a nice departure from the traditional album of Christmas carols. Subtitled "Five Songs for the Season," McKennitt has hand picked these gems and cultivated an intimate collaboration between herself and several musician friends to deliver a relaxed, inspired album of some familiar and some lesser known Christmas and winter carols. "Snow" and "Seeds of Love" are superb and welcome additions to her holiday repertoire. McKennitt also does a wonderful job of bringing out the joy of the season on the standards "Coventry Carol," "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" and "Good King Wenceslas."
1. Coventry Carol
