With "Sounds of the Season", MCA Master Series wunderkind Tony Brown hos woven a resplendent yuletide tapestry that captures the world's favorite holiday in a uniquely progressive musical manner. Brown has compiled sterling Christmas contributions from nine of the music industry's most formidable instrumentalists, each of whom enjoy successful careers as a part of the Master Series roster of all-stars. Joining in the festive outing are Acoustic Alchemy, John Jarvis, Caldwell Plus and Giles Reaves, along with labelmates Jerry Douglas, Edgar Meyer, Billy Joe Walker, Jr., Jon Goin and Greenidge/Utley.
Masterfully innovative renditions of Christmas classics are combined with lesser known traditionals and a remarkable new original selection to achieve a vibrant compilation of cutting edge heraldry. A genuinely meritorious effort, "Sounds of the Season" stands alone as a Christmas album doggedly faithful to the event it celebrates, while remaining equally true to its commitment to exemplary musicianship.
