Other selections were based on authoritative sources, such as presidential writings and direct communication with presidents' families. The music was conducted by Tony Mottola, who often worked with Ives, and arranged by Mottola and Dick Lieb. The historical introductions to the songs were written by Barbara Holdridge. Ives is both the narrator of the introductions and the performer of the songs. And they'll lay you down, low and easy And it looks like you kids will stay Christmas It demands that you travel the distance So believe no lies Dry your eyes and realize by surprise La, la, la And the business will shake hands and talk in numbers And the princess will wake up from her slumber Then all the knights will.
