[Musicians] Christmas Carols

[Magge Genie via Musicians]

If anyone has a question about a specific carol, I have reference books and can look them up if desired. 

Of note, there are period carols for every season of the year, and in period they would not have been limited to specific seasons. :)

It's easy to grab something that's more modern, and some of them are fun songs.  I think we become more focused and more honest custodians of history if we work within some constraints.
