Program Notes
Erik Leidzén's march Christmas Joy is one of the most rewarding and satisfying items of this genre and is arguably the Christmas march against which all others will be measured. Including references to Joy to the World, Jingle Bells, and Love and Joy Come to You, the march encapsulates the joy of Christmas.
