ANNOUNCEMENT: "Jazzed About Christmas!" has been featured on several US radio station during the 2007 and 2008 holiday seasons!! There's a good reason why - great arrangements and performances of your favorite Christmas songs. Christmas cheer is here, with an entertaining, upbeat Christmas CD of traditional and readily identifiable holiday songs. The musical style is a nice mix of smooth jazz and instrumental pop. Great for everyone to brighten the holiday season! And this CD is a perfect Christmas gift for family and friends. In creating this CD, it was my goal to compose arrangements of some traditional Christmas songs that would appeal to the broadest audience. I focused on keeping the simple and basic song structure in place, while adding improvisational parts to enhance the songs’ melodies. Using different instrumentation also allowed me to add my own personality and spice to the songs. Finally, having played all the instruments on this CD allowed me to then translate these arrangements into songs that can be at the forefront of your holiday music listening or be in the background just to add some joy to the season. I'm sure you won't be disappointed! By the way, since we're talking about Christmas, please check out my other CDs, 'And the Day Begins', an instrumental smooth jazz powerhouse, and 'Running for Home', a pop/rock CD of original vocal-based songs. These would also make great Christmas gifts! Thank you, Keith Crawford
