Liebe alte Weihnachtslieder

~ Release by Hermann Prey, Peter Schreier, Fritz Wunderlich, Dresdner Kreuzchor, Knabenchor Hannover (see all versions of this release, 2 available)

Annotation

Inconsistencies:

On back cover and in the booklet, track 5 is listed twice for the phonographic copyright year: 1957 and 1971. track 7 is not listed at all. The correct assignment should be: Track 5 -> 1971 (as all the Walcha recordings) and track 7 -> 1957 (as all the Dresdener Kreuzchor recordings).

On the back cover, the conductor of the Knabenchor Hannover is listed as "Hans Henning", in the booklet as "Heinz Henning". Apparently, the booklet is correct.
