Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Fans of Andrew Lloyd Webber will discover he has a soul mate in one Paul O'Neill, the "conductor" of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. A dyed-in-the-wool sentimentalist, O'Neill presents this pop-rock tale from 1998 with all the glitz and glory of a Lloyd Webber Broadway show. Playing to the common themes of the season through a tale about a little angel sent to Earth to leave behind a gift, O'Neill creates a big-sounding production heavy on lead guitars and orchestral filigree. There are pieces of familiar Christmas carols and hymns and a handful of unembellished acoustic numbers to offset the brighter parts of the musical melodrama. While his singers and players are all professional sounding, O'Neill often mistakes sentiment as a grand gesture when it needs to be something less ambitious or noticeable. Nonetheless, there's a TV special or Broadway show wrapped up in this attic and it won't go away until it gets done. --Martin Keller Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Great SoundsI really enjoyed the Christmas music by TSO...And Beethoven's Last Night, too. I hope they take on other great composers ... it'll resurrect the classics. Rating:  - Metalhead review...not worth it.This is just not what I expected. Over the years I've heard TSO played on the radio, and I really liked what I heard. INSTRUMENTALS! However, this is just weak. The instrumentals are really great, but there are only like two or three on the whole CD. The vocalist is crap, and just ruins the album. The lead singer of Dragonforce is a better singer than this guy! I'm not joking either. If you like showtunes this is up your alley. This is just poor. Metalheads should get Ho Ho Huey instead! ...

Would happily recommend all their albums Rating: - Unusual but Not Quite Up to ExpectationsI love the Christmas Canon but the rest of the songs didn't measure up. I should have investigated it better before purchasing it. I think if this was a live performance it would be worth it, but the CD just doesn't cut it. Rating: - TSO is a tradition nowI have been a fan since 1999 and only started going to their concerts in 2006. I wish I wouldn't have waited so long. They are absolutely amazing to see live. If you are expecting "Jingle Bells" and "White Christmas" or "I'll Be Home for Christmas".......look other places....TSO is not that all. There music envokes emotion of what Christmas is/was or should be. ***WARNING*** There concerts are pretty much the same from year to year. They pretty much do the first album ...
