Again I admit up-front it is somewhat off-center to be listening to Christmas carols in March, but this is (to reuse the same word from a prior review) magnificent. This is probably my favorite song - and not just of Christmas songs - and your arrangement of it, and technical playing of it is great.

I seriously hope you will post some of your other music here so I can enjoy it as well. Thanks for opportunity to hear your substantive talent.

When I heard Miles Davis do 'We 3 Kings' (I think)in Scrooged I realsed you could swing carols. This is a nice balance between classical and jazz (like JS Bach did without even knowing about jazz!). I agree it is nicely restrained and well performed and arranged. ftlpope

Another jazzed up xmas classic done with a a varying and interesting orchstral arrangment that could lend itself to a TV/movie soundtrack.
The style is "not in your face" which allows one easily imagine a family gathering around with this lightly playing in the background.

Super piano, very nice jazzy version. The sax is perfect for the melody, and the whole thing blends together better than a batch of homemade eggnog! wonderfully done.
