5 out of 5 stars I have loved this cd for years.......2006-01-02

I lost my cd... and it just wasn't Christmas without it... I am so glad I was able to find it online. I LOVE this mix of piano - absolutely beautiful.

5 out of 5 stars Intimate moldies.......2001-12-19

As Christmas music goes, this may not be a runaway standout but it's Christmas to me. Often times, I find that adaptations of old songs are either annoying replicas of the original or far-out, unrecognizable pieces, which may be fine on their own, but end up being distracting because you expected something that at least reminded you of the original. Tom Barabas successfully avoids these all too common pitfalls to create sometimes lilting, sometimes haunting, but always beautiful melodies that can either stand as a backdrop for a Christmas party or be the focus of a quiet night alone. There's enough variation to feel like you're getting a creation and enough adherence to the originals to feel like Christmas.
The original songs are a matter of preference, and are much more introspective and intimate, but eventually have become part of my Christmas over the years. This album is the perfect way to unwind after a long pre-Christmas day or to set a pleasant, soothing mood. Get it.
