This week is the beginning of the holiday season and in our house the music is starting to have that ol’ fireside feeling. I love holiday music but I’m wary of starting it too early (I’ve been burned before…) so today I’m offering a carefully crafted 3hr playlist of music that captures those early holiday vibes without any reference to reindeer, mangers or figgy pudding.

Vermeer, A Girl Asleep (1657)

Let this music fill your home (and minivan) this week. That’s what we’ve been doing and it honestly creates the perfect mood for this time of year: warm, nostalgic and bitter-sweet.

If you listen to it enough I think you will likely find yourself transported to a quiet seat beside a crackling fire with the smell of roasting turkey (or tofurkey if you prefer) wafting in from the other room.
