5.0 out of 5 stars AWESOME!, December 1, 1999

Excellent throughout. The "Carol of the Bells" version is exceeded (IMHO) only by the David Benoit version on the first GRP Christmas (sorry George). But the highlight without a doubt is the "Angels We've Heard on High" which is exquisite. The Best of the WS series.

5.0 out of 5 stars A MAGICAL HOLIDAY DREAM ALBUM, February 10, 2004

By 

Dan Powers (Crown Point, Indiana United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: A Winter's Solstice IV (Audio CD)

Perhaps it is possible for one's immediate circumstance to influence, or bias one's hearing, but, I have never encountered a mix of vaguely familiar "sounds" that were so completely soothing to the ear, and comforting to the heart as album IV of the Winter Solstice series.

I have many of Windham Hill's albums, and while each is distinct in musical "flavor" and delivery, this is by far my favorite.

If you don't own this one I highly recommend it to you!

5.0 out of 5 stars Breath-taking music that conveys the spirit of the holidays, October 8, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: A Winter's Solstice IV (Audio CD)

This CD contains some of the most exquisite "winter" music I have ever heard. I used "Dona Nobis Pacem" and "The Wexford Carol" in my Christmas-time wedding in 1996. For holiday-music afficionados, this captures the spirit of the season: peace, joy, and a sense of wonder.
