Nathan & Mark Stoffel (mandolin and violin) have released "A Midwinter's Eve," a beautiful recording of historical songs about the birth of Christ. Performed with finesse, this CD is simply a joy to hear and will create a wonderfully warm atmosphere as you celebrate the most amazing event in history - the Incarnation! Sit back to enjoy the fire, fine acoustic music, and the peace of a midwinter's eve. "A Midwinter's Eve" by Nathan Clark George and Mark Stoffel is perhaps the crowning work of Nathan.
