About this listen

Did you know that the writer of one of our most famous and joyful Christmas carols was fathered by a man called Ebenezer? He may have been Ebenezer, but was he a Scrooge?

What are your favourite sights, sounds, and smells of Christmas? What are ours?

How do you translate German songs if you don't speak German? Who is Thomas Oliphant, and how is today's song related to the early folk music of Wales? What are wax cylinder recordings and how do they work? What do they sound like?

Join Josh and Kristian for all this and more on today's episode, where we explore the first in our December Series of Winter Carols - the popular and joyful 'Deck The Halls'.
