As soon as it began snowing, I pulled "Dis" by Jan Garbarek from the pile and put it on. There's no sleighbells, nothing remotely "holiday" about it, but it reminds me of bone-chilling cold. Garbarek's sax playing is bracing, and several tracks feature Aeolian or wind harp, large harps situated near cliffs whose strings resound from the air rushing off the coast. It reminds me of a winter storm -- but of course, I'm enjoying it in a warm, well-lit house!
