Notes
"Christmas Time Is Here" is a CD of solo piano selections with styles ranging from a lively version of "Sleigh Ride" in 7/8 time to beautiful and relaxing renditions of favorite Christmas carols.
John Eidsvoog's jazz background provides a unique treatment to this collection, both harmonically and rhythmically. If you think you've heard every possible variation on carols like "O Come, All Ye Faithful" and "Angels We Have Heard On High", you'll be pleasantly surprised by these fresh versions. The haunting "Christmas Time Is Here" is enhanced by an original interlude which John has added. "We Three Kings" is a driving jazz waltz, and the collection is rounded out with the beautiful closer, "All I Want For Christmas Is You", by Johnny Mandel.
