Album Notes

Taking a rest from singing and songwriting, "Bainbridge Island's guitar wizard" (Victory News) turns to an all-instrumental release. These are the Midwinter tunes Pete has been playing privately for years, and finally enough people have requested them on disc to stir him from his Seasonal-Affective torpor.

The program covers Advent carols like "O Come, O Come Emmanuel" and "Let All Mortal Flesh keep Silence," Christmas standards like "Silent Night" and "It Came Upon a Midnight Clear," plus feasting tunes like "I Saw Three Ships Come Sailing In" and "In Dulci Jubilo." There's even a ragtime arrangement of Jingle Bells."
