A McGarrigle Christmas | Rufus Wainwright, Emmylou Harris | CD/Tix

THE CD: "Kate and Anna McGarrigle don't record together all that often anymore, but when they do, they tend to make an event of the occasion. Like the pair's 1998 album The McGarrigle Hour, The McGarrigle Christmas Hour ropes in pals like Emmylou Harris and Beth Orton, plus family members, including Rufus and Martha Wainwright, Kate's children with Loudon Wainwright III. The theme, naturally, is Christmas, and the McGarrigles offer multiple takes on the subject...." [The Onion AV Club]

THE CONCERT: "Celebrating family and friends at the holidays, Kate and Anna McGarrigle perform A McGarrigle Christmas on Wednesday, December 21 at 8:00 p.m. in Stern Auditorium. Joined by special guests Emmylou Harris, Kate’s children Martha Wainwright and Rufus Wainwright, Teddy Thompson, and other guests to be announced, the concert features traditional and contemporary holiday songs from the new album..." [Carnegie Hall]
