Video provider MidnightSwinger says,

October 1, 1968: Anthony Benedetto steps into CBS 30th Street Studio in New York to lay down six tracks for ‘Snowfall,’ his upcoming Christmas album (four songs having already been recorded in London during summer ’67). Each song is arranged and conducted by Robert Farnon, including this smashing big band arrangement of the ‘Sound of Music’ standard which would become the album’s kickoff track.
