Crescent City Christmas Card – Wynton Marsalis Official Website
With a nod to the great Welsh poet Dylan Thomas’ beloved “A Child’s Christmas in Wales,” this album might have been titled, “A Child’s Christmas in New Orleans.” It brings us the music, from “The Little Drummer Boy” to “We Three Kings,” that Wynton grew up playing at midnight masses and other Yuletide events. Reimagined and interpreted, Wynton’s jazzy arrangements swing with joy, reverence, and playful good humor. The album features Kathleen Battle on “Silent Night” and Jon Hendricks on “Sleigh Ride,” as well as Wynton’s spoken narration, to his soulful arrangement of “Twas the Night Before Christmas.”
