"The Christmas season is a time of celebration for many people around the world, with special food, gift giving, decorations, and ...music! In Spanish, Christmas songs are called villancicos, and some of them have been sung for centuries.
Villancicos offer a unique glimpse of the value of family in Hispanic cultures. Their lyrics draw many parallels between the home life of a Latino family and the Holy Family in Bethlehem. These endearing verses celebrate the miracle of a new life and embody the faith and sensibility of Hispanic culture, as expressed through a central tradition: Christmas, la Navidad". ---from the introduction
