Jason & Nolan are currently scoring films, composing commissioned concert works, and musical directing and conducting professionally. Their compositions have been used by CBS, MTV, MGM, Columbia Pictures, Nickelodeon, Dreamworks, Paramount, and Warner Brothers. They both keep active careers as freelance violinists with several regional orchestras and theatre companies.

CHRISTMAS
author: Dean SaucierWhile the CD is what we expected, it is disappointing that there were only six tracks on it. Thank you.
Absolutely magnificent!
author: CareyThis album was brilliantly executed, stunningly inspirational, and overall just plain wonderful. I bought 17 copies to give as Christmas gifts this year, and every recipient so far has called me personally to thank me for introducing them to the powerful music of Jason & Nolan!!! Another fantastic piece of work!
Absolutely beautiful and enchanting
author: JennarosaI just wanted to Wish you a Merry Christmas, and tell you how delightful it was to listen to your Cd presentation. Everyone should purchase this copy of such delightful music for Christmas.
Holiday Blessings
author: Richard BennettThis is a wonderful album. It is hard in a field of so many Christmas albums to find a jewel, but this is it. I don't intend to wait until next Christmas to play it again.
Great, soothing music
author: KenAs always, Jason and Nolan's music is wonderful, soothing, and gorgeous. This is a great addition to my collection of Christmas music from two consumate musicians. Highly recommended!
THRILLING, INSPIRING, & CHARMING!! This is a fantastic Christmas album!
author: Pat SymonFrom beginning to end, this Christmas CD is wonderful! The opening "Celebration Medley" is a thrilling and inspiring arrangement of carols that sounds like Mannheim Steamer meets Disney with a celtic flare. I love it. "Snow Song / O Come, O Come Emmanuel" is beautifully delicate and almost haunting. The "Bethlehem Medley" has some very nice mellow jazz moments, and the lovely "O Holy Night" is unique but very worshipful. These guys are great at what they do, and you will not be dissapointed with this album.
