Released in 1983 by MGM, A Christmas Story became a true holiday classic thanks to its impeccable comedic performances, triple-dog dares, and countless cable marathons. One aspect often overlooked is the music composed for the film by Carl Zittrer and Paul Zaza. Their musical contributions, unreleased until now, capture the film’s nostalgic charm and transport viewers to an age of innocence. A CHRISTMAS STORY: MUSIC FROM THE MOTION PICTURE will be available November 10 from Rhino at all retail outlets, including www.rhino.com, for a suggested list price of $18.98 (physical) and $11.99 (digital).
