Christmas is on the way and what could be nicer than lovely traditional music to welcome the approaching Holiday Season? God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen is an English traditional Christmas carol, also known as Tidings of Comfort and Joy. It is one of the oldest extant carols, dated to the 16th century or earlier. Soon I will be making available for free listening online, a private collection of Christmas songs and instrumental tracks (contemporary, remixed versions) via my brand new official Author Site. This beautiful carol is one of my my favourites. The new site - Ana da Silva creative-online - is still under construction, but you are invited to take a look to discover the novelties. As the chosen name 'creative online' says, it will include not only books, but also other categories such as Art, Design, Music, Inspiration, Lifestyle, etc...

To save poor souls from Satan's power, Which long time had gone astray. Which brings tidings of comfort and joy Stay tuned and don't miss any updates! Wish you well, Ana
