This cd contains 12 tunes featuring some newer versions of previously recorded tunes, some new arrangements of classic holiday songs and some pieces created recently in the spirit of the holiday season. A 'recollection' can be a distant memory - suddenly recalled - or in this instance, a gathering of childhood stories unique to the Holidays. Some are highly personal, some are musical remembrances of Christmases in concert with Peter Yarrow and Mary Travers, but most of the songs reflect an evolving appreciation of the reason for the holiday: the birth of Christ. Though often obscured by commercial fervor, the essential lesson of Christ's life – to love one another – has continued to inform and inspire both the creation and performances of many of these songs and it is my hope that this mix of the familiar and new will now become part of your 'recollection' as well...
