December: Holiday Carols

As some of you may know, I have a collection of Latin holiday songs over at the GAUDIUM MUNDO blog, which runs from December 1 through December 31 each year. So, for today's Bestiaria post, I wanted to give you a preview of the coming week's holiday songs. You can see a complete calendar for the Decenber songs over at Gaudium Mundo - and also get a Latin Holiday Song widget if you want! Meanwhile, the regular Bestiaria blog will be back in action tomorrow!
