"Terrific! Anderson's blend of whimsy and pathos makes for an eclectic, touching listening experience."
<"b00005qc084999"> Album Description
D.C. Anderson, one of Broadway and cabaret's most compelling performers, has gathered holiday songs by contemporary writers Jane Siberry, David Buskin and Lee Holdridge, Broadway composers Kander & Ebb, Lucy Simon & Susan Birkenhead, Mary Rodgers & Stephen Sondheim and Sondheim & Jule Styne, added a few traditional favorites and teamed with pianists Lem Jay Ignacio and Steven Landau, acoustic guitarists Roy Zimmerman and Steve Bargonetti and acoustic bass man Ritt Henn to create the Christmas release 'all is calm, all is bright' ! Songs receiving their premiere recording on this CD include Sondheim & Rodgers' 'Christmas Island at Christmas Time', Simon & Birkenhead's 'Heaven Can't Be Far' and Anderson and Landau's 'Hands'. From the calypso beat of 'Christmas Island at Christmas Time' to the laugh-out-loud funny 'UPS Bell Carol' ('Carol of the Bells' from the perspective of harried holiday UPS shipping department clerks), to the thought provoking 'The Rest of the Year', to the traditional 'Silent Night' , this LMLMusic release is both beautifully performed and delightfully entertaining!
