Classical Christmas
author: RebeccaSimply gorgeous...arrangements, performance, and production! Love the intimate sound of the quartet with beautiful solos on trumpet, flute, and violin. A must have for your Christmas music collection.
Classical Christmas
author: JoanWhat a wonderful Christmas compilation of classical favorites and a few new various of older pieces. I especially enjoyed Lumiere's version of Bach's Dona Nobis Pacem. There is nothing better to put one in the Christmas spirit than this wonderful quartet's exceptional Classical Christmas. Bravo.
Excellent holiday CD
author: BeckyThis CD of holiday music shows superb musicianship and variety. It employs traditional arrangements of favorites such as Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, What Child is This, and Coventry Carol to set a holiday mood. As a professional musician myself, I noticed a nice contrast between the more staccato and tenuto sections, and enjoyed the three guest artists (on trumpet, flute, and violin) who created a little variety. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a holiday CD.
