This is a collection of four popular 20th-century Christmas songs and two traditional carols, arranged for easy playing. Both the selection and arrangements are full of refined taste, making this one of the most highly recommended among Rochellor's many Christmas collections. "Christmas Time Is Here" is a true gem, also known as "A Charlie Brown Christmas" or "Snoopy's Merry Christmas." Its romantic and smooth arrangement is superb. "Winter Wonderland" is another classic among classics. It is still fresh in memory that Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga's duet cover gained popularity in recent years. "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year," beloved for Andy Williams' sweet voice, also evokes nostalgia. All of these are tasteful arrangements that directly express the festive cheer and joy of the season. It is an excellent album that can be enjoyed by everyone, from children to adults.
