**** SPECIAL HOLIDAY PRICE DROP! *** NOW ONLY $9.99! *** ORDER TODAY! **** Theta comes from the ancient Greek character (looks like an "O" with a horizontal line through it) and its original meaning translates to the concepts of thought, life and spirit. In the field of music, I like to think of theta as “creative spirit” and there is certainly plenty of that represented here by the talented artists on this album, as well as the visual package you hold in your hand. If you enjoy this album as much as I enjoyed bringing it to you, then please spread the word about A Very Theta Christmas far and wide! It’s available right here on CDBaby.com, iTunes and dozens of other digital download sites. Have A Very Theta Christmas!
