This album was a surprise to me and others who heard it for the first time; not your typical Christmas album but ever so lovely, melodic and rewarding. This is a Polish music album celebrating all that is sacred and good about the Christmas season. Although I don't understand a word of Polish, the words and music transcends culture by perfectly emoting all the good feelings one hopes for during the holidays. Some pieces are joyous and quietly exciting and others contemplative and deeply touching and satisfying to hear. The album would serve perfectly as a backdrop to a family gathering or as a point of interest worthy of sharing with friends and family. I consider this album the music-find of the decade for me; a way to appreciate the joy and beauty of Christmas as celebrated in a far away place.
