I just bought a 42″ plasma screen and was looking for some ‘wallpaper’ video I could play on it when not watching TV or entertaining. I have a video of the Yule Log buring in a fireplace and was looking for something along that line.
This DVD is that, but it delivers much, much more. It’s an hour and a half of great images that never repeat. The shots are edited to flow with the music and they’ve managed to put about 20 or so great xmas selections that seem drawn from many different sources, from full orchestras to choral to simple woodwinds. I’m going to order a few more as gifts because I have some friends, who when they see this, will want to have their own copies.

I got one of these last Christmas and just ordered five to give as gifts this Christmas. Anyone who’s visited New York at Christmas time will want to have this and anyone who’s never visited New York at Christmas time SHOULD have this!

A MUST for anyone that comes from NY or NJ or remembers a visit to NYC at Christmas time

Although I haven’t seen most of the scenes in this video, somehow it gives me a feeling of nostalgia for NYC at Xmas time. Last Xmas my whole family wound up sitting and watching it when we shoulda been preparing Xmas dinner. It is beautifully photographed and much of it has great snow scenes in Central Park as well as more familiar landmarks like Rock Center and so on. Great value.

When I first played this DVD, I wasn’t expecting much more than some cliche images of classic New York Christmas scenes. Boy, was I surprised when I found myself sitting there through the entire 90 minutes — even though the packaging suggests playing it in background at holiday party or while opening presents. The images are beautifully shot and edited to a great selection of Christmas music as varied as the images themselves. I would expect to pay this price for a CD of the music alone!
It conveys a real festive Christmas air! Christmas In New York Great value!
UPDATE: I recently returned to order some copies as gifts and discovered the original DVD’s been updated with several new ‘bonus’ scenes. Even greater value!
