Stunning seasonal Piano music by two of the Narada label's finest pianist: Michael Jones and David Lanz. Music on this CD is only found here not on their own releases. This is a seasonal classic not to be missed.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my favorite Christmas CDs, October 22, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Solstice (Audio CD)
For some reason, solo piano Christmas CDs have always been one of the things that I love about the Christmas season, and this is definately one of my favorites. Each of the pieces is superb, though "Good King Wencelas" stands out. The arrangement and performance are beautiful, and it's been a regular on my "most played during the season" list since I got it. I can't think of any one track that better captures the feel of Christmas than this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful, August 28, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Solstice (Audio CD)
I love piano music, and this is the ultimate. It's something that you can listen to not just at Christmastime. And "Improvisation on a Theme adapted from Pachelbel's Canon in D Major" is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. It's quite a long song and it just carries you away.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best effort by both Lanz and Jones, June 21, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Solstice (Audio CD)
My favorite track is the 4th song, Improvisation on a Theme. Honestly, how many 12-minute long songs are out there that you can actually sit through without getting bored? This is one of them, although I seriously doubt that the song was actually improvised on a spot (it's too well conceived, structured, and crafted). It's a much better effort than Cristofori's Dream, the track that made David Lanz (and Narada label) famous initially. There are a lot of lame new-age CDs out there that tried to capitalize on its early success, but this is definitely not one of them.
