Description:
These visionary and evocative interpretations of Peter's favourite Christmas songs transport us around the world to experience the soul of the season in a timeless and universal canopy of sound. Velvety smooth percussion and celebratory rhythms playfully dance with the Native American flute, Middle Eastern duduk, Irish penny whistle, woodwinds, guitar, bass and piano: all resounding deeply, joyfully and reverently, exposing layer after layer of Xmas Ecstasy. If you're looking for a more sophisticated sound in your holiday music this is the one you should get. Peter Kater's gentle jazz interpretations of favorite carols include 'O Holy Night,' 'Coventry Carol,' 'Little Drummer Boy,' 'What Child Is This?' and 'Silent Night.' Each track is unique in it's interpretation making these familiar tunes almost unrecognizable. This is not an upbeat jazzy recording. Most pieces are gently rolling and majestic yet subtle enough to play as background music all day.
