In our weekly email newsletter last week, we asked Classical IPR listeners to vote for their favorite Christmas carols.
We received responses from 77 people, each of whom voted for up to five favorite carols.
Which carols topped the list? See the results below, and we created a Spotify playlist so you can listen to them on demand. (you'll need a free Spotify account to listen)
Be sure to check our program schedule so that you don't miss any Christmas music specials this season on Classical IPR.
Number 6 (tied with 11 votes each): "Silent Night," "I'll be home for Christmas" and "God rest ye merry gentlemen"
