Christmas music comes in many different forms and includes songs that are both spiritual and secular but are sung during the winter holiday seasons. The history of Christmas music goes back many centuries, and began with Christian hymns that were sung as a part of religious services during the winter months, including "O Come All Ye Faithful," "Joy to the World" and others. Religious Christmas music pieces are also known as Christmas carols. The Christmas music style is also made up of secular songs that reference celebratory aspects of Christmas but are not religious in nature; secular Christmas music includes holiday favorites such as "White Christmas" and "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer."

Christmas music has become an important part of many different professional projects and is often piped into many different types of businesses, including restaurants and department stores during the holiday season. Christmas music on hold can help communicate a festive spirit to clients that call for information about products and services and can help provide a positive image for all types of companies. Many holiday films and television specials use Christmas music as part of their soundtracks to create a specific mood and help with the continuity of the story, but struggle with the high costs of hiring musicians and composers to create and record Christmas music for their projects or the expenses of purchasing music from a major music provider.
