Norwegian singer Sissel Kyrkjebo is a star in her home country and has enjoyed wide popularity in the U.S. for her rich soprano and her ability to navigate deftly between classical music and lighter pop fare. This holiday album ties in with a much-viewed PBS special of the same name, featuring spine-tingling renditions of Christmas classics as well as more obscure fare, like the ethereal "Icelandic Lullabye" and the folky "Sarah's Song."
