The Beachfront Property septet bundles up for the wintry chill with these dozen accompanied holiday classics, performed in elegant supper-club style. Members take turns soloing over chord voicings that lend themselves to comparison with the Singers Unlimited; the arrangements, (many written by Michele Weir, of Phil Mattson's P.M. Singers), can be tricky! 'Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer,' featuring the pitter-patter of reindeer feet and a presto descending motive, varies its rhythmic accents and tempo throughout. 'God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen' has a signature walking bass, setting a relaxed four in conjunction with the lyric. In short, Santa, prepare to swing with style! Listen to Silent Night in RealAudio. |
