This week on From the Vault we present our annual Julio's Holiday program - a collection of original radio dramas produced by KPFK'sArts in Review host Julio Martinez. In this edition, we present two of Julio's classic stories and a dash of vintage holiday music: "Keeping Christmas Well" (a radio drama based on A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens), "Dreidels and Doughnuts" (a holiday tale of the origins of Chanukah), and a rare collection of holiday songs from Mexico recorded in 1964.
From the Vault is presented as part of the Pacifica Radio Archives Preservation and Access Project, funded in part by an award from the GRAMMY Foundation and the National Historical Publications and Records Commission at the National Archives and Records Administration, and past grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Ford Foundation, and the American Archive funded by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, along with the generous support of Pacifica Radio Listeners. We also thank our partners and collaborators at the Pop-Up Archive, Amara, Other Minds Archives, George Blood Audio, and the California Audio Visual Preservation Project.
