This unique album is one of my favorite Christmas albums.
Jana Mashonee sings each of the ten songs in a different Native American language. For example, it starts with "O Holy Night" sung in Navajo; later on, there's an Apache translation of "Joy To The World."
For those like me who love Christ centered Christmas albums without the Santa/Rudolph/Frosty type songs, you'll enjoy the selection of songs. "Winter Wonderland" is the sole Seasonal song. It closes with a song I don't associate with Christmas: "Amazing Grace."
While in Native American languages, the music style is as traditional as the song selection. There is a Native American orchestra accompanying the songs.
I highly recommend this album.
