I love this CD so much! My mom got me hooked on Jim Brickman and his "The Gift" is one of the best. I liked the song "Hope is Born Again" so much that I played it on repeat all night during the holiday season most every night. The "Gift" and "Starbright" are also some of my non traditional Christmas favorites. For those fans of traditional Christmas music, he has also included many beautiful arrangements of these. It is a must have CD for the Christmas season!

5.0 out of 5 stars A soothing, beautifully crafted mix of holiday music !, December 16, 1998

I have never been disappointed in a Jim Brickman CD purchase and "The Gift" is certainly no different. When I found the CD, I simply knew it would be wonderful. How right I was! This man is a genius with the piano and his renditions of holiday favorites as well as his own compositions create a perfect blend. It is soothing, peaceful and perfect for the holidays. It is my new favorite Christmas album!

Jim Brickman had done us a huge favor releasing this piano Christmas album with familiar tones and non-traditional music. The album is a breakthrough from the traditional Christmas albums with pure piano music.

"Joy to the World", "It Came Upon A Midnight Clear", and "Oh Christmas Tree" are among the most popular Christmas favorites. Brickman also recorded new tunes like "Hope is Born Again". Duet "The Gift" performed by Susan Ashton and Collin Raye is yet another non-taditional favorite.
