Over an hour of Christmas music, impeccably played by New Zealander Kris Baines, which is a miracle in itself, considering that in 1998 he was diagnosed with Repetitive Strain Injury in both hands. This CD is evidence that the Lord has not lost his healing touch! The track list is as you’d expect for a Yuletide offering - "Silent Night", "Away In A Manger", "O Holy Night", "O Come All Ye Faithful", etc – and with Kris’s sensitive and lyrical style, these old favourites do not (as many piano projects have done in the past, and doubtless many will continue to do in the future) descend into terminal cheesiness. Instead, they sound fresh and sparkling, making this an album that will continue to please for many Christmases to come.
