Album Notes

Christmas has never sounded so elegant and soulful.

Showcasing the superior talent of Swiss producer Urs Wiesendanger along with an array of first-class studio musicians, this stunning collection of songs will for sure warm the hearts of quality music lovers throughout the upcoming holiday season.

Wiesendanger's inventive arrangements and keyboard playing shine here on modern day classics like David Foster's "Grown-Up Christmas List" which opens the album. Foster's songwriting genius is represented by other gems like "This Time Next Year," co-written with Babyface, "On Christmas Morning," a collaboration with Kenny Loggins, and the gorgeous "The Joy Of Christmas Past" appearing for the first time on CD.

Featuring vocalists Thierry Condor and Miriam Dee, two of the best voices and skilled session singers available today, this album also includes wonderful renditions of Christmas evergreens like a big-band swing arrangement of "The Christmas Song" and a smooth, jazzy rendition of "White Christmas." Donny Hathway's "This Christmas," Celine Dion's "These Are The Special Times," written by Diane Warren, and Robbie Buchanan's "Born On Christmas Day" round out this special record.

As a bonus, "A Christmas Eve in L.A" includes a fantastic "making of" video that gives an exclusive behind-the-scene look on the recording sessions.

Don't miss it!
