THIS PROGRAM NOT AVAILABLE ON CD OR CASSETTE

New Traditions is a holiday music special from New Hampshire Public Radio, hosted by Andrew Walsh.
Thousands of performers have recorded holiday tunes over the decades, but for some reason, we tend to hear the same ones over and over. New Traditions is a Christmas music collection focusing on all the great christmas songs we don't usually get to hear on the radio.

We end our 25 in 25 series with maybe the most important person… YOU. You the newcomer to our state, You the person who has lived here as long as NHPR has been on the air, You whose roots have been planted in the Granite State for generations. You who live in the Upper Valley, or the Seacoast, you in the booming Southern Tier or in the still somewhat barren North Country. Today we talk with you, how you’ve changed the state, how you’ve seen New Hampshire change over the past 25 years and where you think our state is heading in the future.
