Notes and Editorial Reviews

The first lady of the recorder is back with a charming, relaxing disc of music for the holiday season. Intelligent arrangements, superb musicianship, and demonstration-quality sonics elevate this disc way beyond traditional seasonal fare. A refreshing change of pace from the regular Christmas release!
