You awaken on Thanksgiving morning… You lie there thinking of all the tasks you must accomplish to make the day a success. Cook, clean, get the children ready, serve a beautiful meal, and then wash dishes while everyone else watches football and plays. If this sounds anything like Thanksgiving at your house, then we at Naxos Family Classics have something for you. This wonderful compilation is a soundtrack for the holiday. From waking to the familiar sounds of Vivaldi’s “Autumn,” to Handel’s “Alexander’s Feast,” this CD is designed to bring joy and relaxation as you go through the day. (It even includes a ‘naptime’ track!) I invite you to listen to this lovely Thanksgiving CD as you and your family Gather Together in celebration. Enjoy! – Karen L. Deal, Conductor and Compilation Producer
