The Craig Larson Trio (Craig Larson, piano; Matt Larson, bass; and Pat Campbell, drums) is joined here by several of Salt Lake City's finest players--Jay Lawrence on drums and percussion, Tully Cathey on guitar, Brian Booth on tenor saxophone, Sam Cardon, string pads; and Roger Hicks on bassoon. The great Holiday standards are played in several jazz styles that are sure to please a variety of tastes. Great music for the Holidays!
Remember Bing Crosby's rendition of "Count Your Blessings Instead of Sheep" in the movie "White Christmas"? It's here--in Bossa Nova form no less. It's delightful. You'll also hear a very unique and beautiful version of "What Child Is This?" Check it out. We think you will enjoy this album. We had a lot of fun putting it together. Have a great and peaceful Holiday season!

Great musical ideas by great instrumentalists
author: HERB SUTTON, St George, Ut
First met Larson at birthday party of golfing partner and mutual acquaintance. Recognized unique creativity and craftmanship, which was verified in recent small Gershwin-only concert in Salt Lake City.
This Xmas CD has the great ideas and rendition to be expected from Craig Larson --- and his son. They just may be the best, and most knowledgeable of a vanishing breed: disciples of true, pre-R&R classic jazz. Their work is not to be missed by the like-minded, who really listen and hear what they are doing.
