Hej, Vánoce, koleda – Šichová Zdeňka (2013)

Christmas, Christmas is coming, let's sing, friends... - this word lights up children's souls and fills them with eager anticipation of the joys associated with this most beloved holiday of the year. The souls of adults are filled more with worries, but in the end, joy usually prevails, and that of children is wonderfully contagious. Joy also includes singing. When a person is happy, they like to hum and sing. At Christmas, they sing carols. In these folk or popular songs associated with the Christmas season, there is a pious mood, calmness, and peace; they resonate with joy from human community and mutuality, and they express loving humility and a desire for closeness. This singing carol book is intended for children and their parents. It contains fifty of the most famous and beautiful Czech carols that have been sung since time immemorial and are inseparably linked to the atmosphere of Christmas. For Christmas without carols is not Christmas.
