Improvisations on various hymns and carols for service preludes led to the locals requesting a recording of some such... ....be careful what you ask for as the saying goes. Fulfilling the request grew into a full fledged album; I decided to go with arrangements of Christmas carols as the tunes tend to be well-known and lend a feeling of warmth, good-will, and cherished traditions amongst family and friends. It is my hope that this music captures something of the joy, beauty, and light of this festive season and brings a smile to young and old alike. Peace, Light, and Joy, Joel Everett
