December 13, 1999: Early Christmas

Mixed Up Class jumps from Advent to an early Christmas, since this is the last edition of the program before December 25. We have a final take on the "Great O Antiphons". Then a full load carols in the third hour of the program includes pairs of Christmas carols with the same (or nearly the same) texts set differently.
