Christmas on the streets

Street musicians  in Germany, photographed by Roger Rossing in 1948 (and borrowed from Wikipedia's admirable entry on the art). In times of trouble and strife musicians tend to pick up their instruments and take to the streets. Is that why Christmas brings more music into the public arena? Or are we just out to share a bit of Santa-style bonhommie?
