Let's kick things off with Trevor's take on the Christmas classic, 'Angels We Have Heard on High'. Originating melodically from the French hymn 'Gloria', this popular caroling favorite is lyrically inspired by the traditional French carol 'Les Anges Dans Nos Campagnes', which translates as 'The Angels in our Countryside'. The current English version was written by Roman Catholic Priest, James Chadwick in 1862.

Next on our list of Trevor's fingerstyle Christmas classics is "O Christmas Tree", or as it's called in its native German - "O Tannenbaum". Not originally associated with Christmas, rather the faithfulness and constancy of the lush green Tannenbaum Fir tree, the current version originated in melody from a 16th-century folk song before the first version of the modern lyric was added by organist, teacher, and composer Ernst Anshcuts in 1824.
