Album Notes

This is a collection of traditional instrumental carols, written over two years.

The orchestration for most of this classically inspired album is very simple - just piano- with a touch of harp, guitar and strings here and there for texture.

One of the more challenging aspects of this project was to keep the spirit of the carol simple and easy to sing along to, but also to add a twist of something new. A lot of gospel-inspired chords kept finding their way into the structures, and as they sounded right, they were kept in the final mix.

Enjoy listening!

REVIEWS

Relax from the stress
author: Graham Yeomans
                            
A stressful time for many with so much more to do in less time, this album will help restore your balance. In a time when complex technology rules it is great to get back to a more simple music that soothes the frazzeled nerves & reminds us of the joy that Christmas should bring. The great skill in this album from LJ is that she has made it all sound so very simple and basic!!

Beautiful Piano, A Fresh Take On Xmas Music
author: Ben
                            
As someone who does not exactly enjoy carols or celebrate Xmas, I usually find this music quite drab. However I have enjoyed LJ Rich's previous music for it's incredible sound and production quality and this follows the same high standard. This album I DO enjoy. Imagine you have hired a top pianist and you are sitting in plush surroundings, this music sounds 3D and beautiful. O Little Town of Bethlehem has stirring piano and strings (harp). Hark the Herald Angels Sing is a particular favourite of mine. Joy To The World is the most lovely version I have heard and even, incredibly, a cliché like Deck The Halls sound fresh and new. This is the first recording of carol music I can actively enjoy on my headphones all year round.

This album contains the perfect selection  of Christmas carols with all of my favourites.  The chosen combination of musical instruments rendered each carol to be fabulously enchanting and after listening to this album, it left me with the magical feeling that one should always associate with Christmas. It is the only instrumental Christmas album I will ever need or want to buy!!
