1. The First Noel
December 1, 2011
The First Noel performed by the London Symphony Orchestra will serve as a prelude for this calendar. Welcome.
The cottage hearth beams warm and bright,
The candles gaily glow;
The stars emit a kinder light
Above the drifted snow.
Down from the sky a magic steals
To glad the passing year,
And belfries sing with joyous peals,
For Christmastide is here!
- Christmas by H. P. Lovecraft
