[Christmas Songs] Soothing tones: A special collection of music box arrangements!

Once December arrives, Christmas songs start playing everywhere—from city streets to TV shows.

When you put on music yourself, you’re probably often looking for Christmas songs too.

But when you’re in the mood for something mellow rather than party-like, it can be surprisingly hard to find the right tracks.

That’s why we recommend music box arrangements of Christmas songs.

In this article, we’ll introduce many music box versions of Christmas classics!

Enjoy these lovely tunes and savor your special moments.

[Christmas Songs] Soothing tones. Music box arrangement special! (21–30)

All ye faithful, make haste

All People Rejoice / Christmas Song [Music Box]
All ye faithful, make haste

“Morobito Kozorite” is a popular Japanese Christmas hymn and a classic Christmas song.

Even if you don’t know the title, I think it’s a tune everyone recognizes once they hear it.

It also sounds wonderful played on a music box.

Snow Magic FantasySEKAI NO OWARI

A winter song released in 2014 as their fifth major single.

It’s filled with the fantastical expressions they excel at, and just listening to it conjures up sparkling, fluffy images of winter.

The music box version gives an even gentler impression.

Carol of the Bells

Unusually dark in tone for a Christmas song.

Recently, the a cappella group Pentatonix has also performed it.

With strong hymn-like elements, it evokes the image of Christmas in Europe.

Frosty The Snowman

I bet many of you have heard this one too.

In the West, it’s a children’s Christmas song.

The bouncy rhythm of the accompaniment is really distinctive!

Hiiragi / Do As Infinity [Music Box] (Theme song for the TBS drama 'Love Letter: The Man We Loved')

This song was also used as a TV drama’s theme.

Many of you have probably heard it at least once.

Its gently permeating sense of melancholy might be just right for spending Christmas alone.

Merry × Merry Xmas★E-girls

Merry × Merry Xmas★ / E-girls [Music Box] (Samantha Thavasa “Merry Christmas to You” commercial song)

This is E-girls’ 15th single, released on December 23, 2015.

It’s their first single after abolishing the selection system, and the only song that year featuring all E-girls members.

It’s E-girls’ heartfelt Christmas song.

Listening to it gently on a music box is also lovely, isn’t it?

Jesu, Joy of Man’s DesiringJ.S.Bach

Just by listening, it feels as if the distinctive warmth of a winter church comes back to life.

The melody seems about to end but never does, layering more and more, swelling again and again, growing richer.

Highly recommended for those who want to spend Christmas filled with happiness and God’s grace.
