DOR-93250 Cover


The three of us have been friends and colleagues for many years.   We have always admired each other's work a great deal, and feel blessed that our work together has not only enriched our friendship but also our respect for one another.   We began performing winter holiday concerts together in 2000.   One thing led to another, and we decided to pool our recordings of seasonal repertoire on a communal album.   In this unusual format, a sequence evolved in which our tracks alternated, resulting in a musical conversation beyond what any of us had imagined individually … a fitting example of the magic of the holidays: voices of friends and family sharing in celebration.
