Here's where you can find music for Christmas greeting cards, Christmas websites, Christmas films, etc. We are exceptionally well stocked both on the classics such as "We Wish You A Merry Christmas", "Jingle Bells" and "Silent Night", as well as other, new compositions that aren't actually traditional or famous Christmas carols, but are new, fresh compositions by our composers, in a Christmas style / Christmas sound. (You may find yourself looking for other tracks such as "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town", "White Christmas", "Frosty the Snowman", "Walking in the Winter Wonderland", "Rockin Around the Christmas Tree", "Let it Snow" and "Holly Jolly Christmas". You may be interested to hear that these tracks are not availble as royalty-free music / stock music anywhere at all, since the actual compositions are in copyright and not in the public domain; therefore it would not be legal for us to offer up these tracks as part of our royalty-free music catalogue, not even if we record our own versions / recordings of them).
