A Merry Little Christmas

Linda Ronstadt

A hushed, reverent collection of carols and standards. Ronstadt trades her rock belt for a crystalline soprano, creating a winter landscape of piano and strings.

October 10, 2000 · Elektra

A hushed, reverent stillness that balances holiday warmth with a deep, wintry solitude.

Moments Worth Listening For
The haunting, layered choral opening of Xicochi, Xicochi that feels like stepping back four centuries.
The transition from the sparse piano intro to the full, weeping string section on River.
The way her voice holds a delicate, vibrato-less line on the final verse of Silent Night.
