Alias Clio has a really nice series of posts about several of the less widely sung Christmas carols, including audio (and sometimes video) for some of them and appropriate art. If you’re like me you’ll recognize most of them but will have heard them less than ten million times. The link takes you to her December archive; you can go down to the bottom and work up if you want them in the order she posted them—I think “In the Bleak Midwinter” is the first.
And at Mere Comments, Anthony Esolen has a wonderful meditation that really hit home to me for a number of reasons with which I won’t bore you. It isn’t very susceptible to summation or even brief description, so I’ll just suggest that you go read it.
