I don’t know
if this is right to
assume but I have
always felt that the
beauty of music is
that is can transcend
all of the boundaries
we choose to place
around ourselves.
Music has the power
to push beyond religion
and race, it can move
across oceans, through
wars and be passed
down through generations.
It is timeless and
when done properly
one of the most powerful
force in the world.
This is why when I
received an album
masterfully composed
by Matthew Prins,
and filled with traditional
Christmas music I
didn’t think
twice about bringing
it to The Deli. Yes
there is a religious
message in each of
these tracks, but
if that is not your
focus this Holiday
season it is my belief
that the shear elegance
and grace in the compositions
that Prins has put
together will allow
you to give this album
a chance. What I found
most enjoyable about
this album was the
diverse arrangements
filled with harp,
bells, piano, guitar,
and more, and they
do not really on the
organ as most traditional
recording do. Prins
approaches each song,
from “O Come,
All Ye Faithful”
to “Carol of
The Bells”,
from such a fresh
and intelligent prospective
that it will make
this album stand out
in your collection.
