The Lester Family (Noel Lester, RoseAnn Markow Lester, Marie Lester Loy, David Lester)
Rejoice! Another Christmas With the Lesters
Classical and light classical selections for voice, violin, double bass, and piano
The talented Lester family--Marie Lester Loy, soprano, RoseAnn Lester, violin, David Lester, double bass, and Noel Lester, piano, bring another Christmas gift in "Rejoice!" They have included some standard seasonal pieces by such masters as Bach, Pachelbel, Handel, and Mozart, and have also included some recent carol arrangements for violin/double bass/piano by Eugenie Rocherolle. A special feature of this CD are the arrangements written especially for them by composer Wayne L. Wold. Also, 100% of CD sales will be donated to such charities as the Salvation Army and Habitat for Humanity.
Composer/arranger Wayne Wold writes:
"As the arranger of three pieces on this recording, I can say that the Lesters not only capture my intentions--they exceed them. Bravo! Wayne L. Wold, D.M.A., Associate Professor of Music at Hood College.
Richard Banks, writing for Christmas Reviews.com called the disc "elegantly arranged, meticulously constructed and exquisitely performed." To read the entire review, please go to this link:
