'When I set out to arrange traditional Christmas carols I was determined that they should not be yet another run-of-the-mill, strophic, verse-by-verse version of our Christmas heritage. I have tried to treat each carol in the collection as the basis for a Petite Fantasie - a continuous, single-movement of variations on the original tune. Of course, the carol is heard in its traditional form at some point during the arrangement but hopefully its appeal is enhanced without destroying the traditional concept. In particular, White Christmas, Silent Night and the middle sections of Hark the Herald and Christmas is Coming have the soft 'lush' treatment. The collection is, in all, a delightful mixture of musical styles through the ages.' Leslie Pearson
