...when Christmas really is... many people ask themselves this question, because
the true meaning of Christmas is often lost sight of these days.

This beat, in the style of the Kastelruther Spatzen, tells the story in a cheerful,
entertaining way of the madness of the run-up to Christmas and
gives us food for thought.
