It’s not December yet, but yesterday was the First Sunday of Advent, so I’m starting with the Xmas Music Xtravaganza! I found this "Pentatonix Christmas (Deluxe)" playlist, featuring the kids singing traditional carols and Christmas songs in their own inimitable style. They’re joined on "White Christmas" by the fantastic Manhattan Transfer, on "How Great Thou Art" by the great Jennifer Hudson, and on the second play of Leonard Cohen’s "Hallelujah" by The String Mob. There’s about an hour of music here. Enjoy!
- O Come, All Ye Faithful
- God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen
- White Christmas (with The Manhattan Transfer)
- I’ll Be Home For Christmas
- Up On The Housetop
- The Christmas Sing-Along
- Coventry Carol
- Hallelujah
- Coldest Winter
- Good To Be Bad
- Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays
- Deck The Halls
- How Great Thou Art (with Jennifer Hudson)
- Away In A Manger
- Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
- Hallelujah (with The String Mob)
And that’s Monday’s Music Moves Me for November 29, 2021.
Monday’s Music Moves Me is sponsored by Cathy, Alana, and Stacy, so be sure and visit them, where you can also find the Linky for the other participants.

I listened and confirmed that i really don’t like them at all. I can’t stand them actually and gave it a really great try.

I so enjoy a capella singing and beat boxing. My favorite here was the first, with its African/gospel (not sure how to describe it) vibe. My second was Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays. That had such a night beat. Good to listen to on a snow flurry type evening. We even have eggnog in the house.

John,
I’m happy to see you’re getting in the Christmas mood early. I never tire listening to music of the season. Pentatonix is a talented group of kids. Ever since their career launched, I’ve noticed other artists doing more acapella. Thanks for sharing some fabulous classic Christmas carols performed by an amazing group. Have a joyful holiday season and thanks for joining the 4M crew this week, my friend.

I wasn’t sure whether the December Christmas musicfest had begun, so I decided it had. I think someone else (Driller, I think) who featured another vocal group that sings a capella, and I thought that was fantastic. This is the time of the year for vocal music, isn’t it?

So do I. They have quite a following, and I know the group appreciates them. It’s another example of a group that built a following on the Internet.
