    Hi, this is your humble host Bereket Kelile.

    The History of Christmas Music is the podcast that dives into the interesting stories behind the Christmas carols that you know and love.

    We’ll visit medieval monasteries, war zones, and a living room in Southern California in the July heat.

    After hearing these stories, you’ll never hear the songs the same way again.

    If you’re like me, knowing the backstory means you can better appreciate the Christmas music.

    Much of what you hear comes from a great book by Ace Collins called Stories Behind the Best-Loved Songs of Christmas

    Enjoy the podcast and Happy Christmas!
