Without question, one of my favorite musical pieces (I know, I know, I’m not very original liking Pachelbel’s Canon, so sue me), these “Trans-Siberian Orchestra” versions are two of my staple Christmas musical pieces. Both are based on the same piece yet both bring unique beauty to a genre that is brimming with magnificence.
Here is another pleasant Rock version (a bit higher quality) but it has a short interview before the song begins.
And, if you’re wondering, that lady with the wonderfully potent voice is Jennifer Cella. She maintains a MySpace page here. Be careful, it launches a song right away when you enter it…
