Bring back the
Wonders and Magic of
Christmas with Music
The Christmas CD You've
Been Waiting For!
A Brand New
Christmas Album
These carols, played with love, will bring back your favorite
holiday memories.
Remember the smells of Grandma's fresh-baked Christmas cookies and
cakes that filled the air? The hand-made stockings were hung by
the chimney with care.
| Dr. Cash,
Thank you so much for your Christmas CD. The piano and the songs
on the CD are my favorites. I played the CD for hours. I just
pushed the repeat button on my CD player and that was all it
took to transfer me back to being a child. The smell of
the
Christmas tree, the fruit,candies,the songs and my
family around me. Thank you for the lovely memories of my
childhood.

For a couple of years now, you've been
asking me to record a Christmas CD for you and your family to enjoy.
In mid-November, I went into the recoding studio and made a CD of some of my
favorite Christmas/Holiday music and it was a blast!!
Needless to say, I love playing the
piano and to go into a fabulous studio and play favorite music on a
beautiful grand piano...well, it's a thrill!

"Christmas Around the
Piano with Alice" |
From
my earliest childhood, Christmas (around the piano) has been a magical time for me. My
grandmother, pictured on the cover, always had a live tree covered with
sparkling ornaments and twinkling lights. The hand-made stockings were
hung by the chimney with care, and the smell of Grandma's Christmas
cookies filled the air! As the daughter of a Methodist minister, I heard
the traditional carols from late November through mid-January and loved
them immediately. I feel sure that some loving family member hummed "Silent Night" to me, possibly before I was even born. We always had a
manger scene and the birth of Baby Jesus was explained to me in a way
that did make it seem wondrous and awesome.
The songs on this CD are some of my
favorite Christmas songs and range from a jazzy version of "Go Tell it
On the Mountain," to the secular "Christmas Waltz" and "Christmas
Song." The biggest part of the CD is traditional Christmas carols such
as "Lo, how a Rose ere blooming," and "In the Bleak Mid-Winter."
Please listen to a sample of 2 of the songs:
This Christmas, I thought I would share these tunes and these memories
with you, knowing that you probably have many of the same ones too. I
wish you a blessed and peace-filled holiday!
