“Celebrate Christmas with a song! Here, twenty-five of the most beloved holiday carols are paired with works from The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Nativity carols, holiday lullabies, radio classics, and fireside songs from both Christmas pas and Christmas present are matched with painting, prints, textiles, and more. Each song is complete with an easy-to-follow arrangement and guitar chords for musical accompaniment.
From gentle to merry, these songs are drawn from a number of different cultures, from Shakespearean England to Robert Burns’ Scotland to 1950s America. Throughout the book are comments on the art, the songs, or the combination of the the two.
The works of art are selected from the Museum’s diverse collections and range in date from the fifteenth century to the present.”
