Christmas Music and Audiophiles?

I personally really enjoy listening to Christmas music. I find that when it's done well it can be better than just about any other types of music. I even listen to it from time to time throughout the year.

Are there any audiophile Christmas Albums that are worthly of your dedicated stereo listening systems or do you only play Christmas music on your whole house systems as background music?

What are you favorites?

One of my personal current favorites is the Canadian Tenors Christmas album. I have five more Christmas CDs on the way to enhance this upcoming season.

The many Moods Of Christmas - Robert Shaw with Atlanta Sym Orch and Chorus

Messiah (highlights) - Andrew Davis with Toronto Symphony and Toronto Mendelssohn Choir. Kathleen Battle, et al

soma.fm. 128K qty so nonaudiophile. Not just one but two holiday channels with lots of stuff I've never heard (from an old guy with a wife and sister who are Xmas fiends). I also- somewhat to my surprise- liked the new He & She Xmas album. My wife was credited by one of the salesmen at Music Millennium as having purchased the first 2011 Xmas CD earlier this month (see above).
