Strange French accent
I am disappointed in Couch's pronunciation. It sounds really fake, overstressed, and she makes strange liaisons. Seigneur sounds like "say- gneur" for example. Her "r's" are awful. In "Un Flambeau Jeannette Isabelle" she really sounds strange. The beginning of "Sainte Nuit" is ridiculous.

Should I play this for my students and tell them not to pronounce the French like her?

If I could return this, I definitely would. Buyers beware!!

Great Christmas CD
I am trying to learn French, and thought this might be a good cd to listen to. This is a great cd for several reasons. CC Couch sings very clearly, so one can really hear the french words, and since the lyrics are included you can read along as she sings. CC has a very nice voice, and I very much like the arrangements, which are simple but very pleasing to the ear. I would like this cd even if I weren't trying to learn french.

Christmas `a la francaise
This CD is by far the most enjoyable musical experience in a foreign language that I've found here on Amazon. I've had the CD for over a year and it's always one that you can listen to again and again to put you in the holiday spirit whether you understand French or not. I've been a student of French for several years now and the lyrics help you to sing along or just to read thru them. This is also a great way to mix the French songs with your holiday playlists on your MP3 player and get an "international" feeling during the Xmas holiday.

traditional sounding
I am a little disappointed because I was hoping to get something more contemporary, jazz, or easy listening type Christmas recording. This is still good for French lovers and people who want to learn French, but it's not as fun or exciting as I would have wanted it to be.
