American organist James B. Welch performs Music for Christmas, recorded live during holiday concerts in 1976 and 1978 at Stanford Memorial Church on a four manual, 70 rank 1901 Murray Harris organ. Welch composed a number of new songs which all received their premiere performances at these concerts, highlighting the tradition of the Christmas season and its wealth of beautiful music. Wilson Audiophile's typical superb engineering presents Welch's organ in warm, full sound.
