A New Masterpiece of Jazz Christmas Albums by Kurt Elling! His first Christmas holiday album.

As the first release, he has released his first Christmas holiday album.

From the opening of the sunny "Sing a Christmas Carol," which features the familiar Christmas song, to the closing of the serene "The Beautiful Day," the arrangements offer a variety of discoveries each time you listen to the album.The standard favorites "Some Children SeeHim," "Little Drummer Boy," and "This Christmas," the hidden classics "We Three Kings," and "Same Old Lang Syne," and all of the songs are well balanced with the brilliant sense of Kurt Elling and the warmth of a holiday mood that will fill anyone's heart. All of the songs have a pleasant balance of Kurt Elling's brilliant sense of style and a warm holiday mood that will fill anyone's heart. A new masterpiece of jazz Christmas album!
