"This CD is magnificent! I love how all of the instruments of the quartet play in harmony. Deck The Halls, which is very upbeat and lively, is in my opinion the best song on the CD. Although this is a CD of Christmas music, I'm going to continue to listen to it year round. If you are in need of a gift idea for Christmas '99, this is the CD for you!"

"I picked up this little gem in an airport over Thanksgiving. One listen and you'll be hooked! Two maintenance men, whom I know well, came to do some repair in our apartment last week. I left them to their work (with Noel Noel playing on the stereo), and went to the fitness room to work out. The next day, both men approached me, "What was that music playing in your apartment yesterday?" one asked, "it was so special and relaxing." The other believed it to be, "the perfect dinner music." They're both right! And they both want a copy. Get it. Get two."
BEAUTIFUL!

"This CD was playing at a restaurant and it was so beautiful we just had to ask our waitress what it was. It is my favorite Christmas CD. Makes great background music for holiday parties."

"It's a shame that this wonderful CD is currently out of print and unable to find the audience it so richly deserves. I wholeheartedly agree with my fellow reviewers concerning the wonderful atmosphere that these four amazing musicians are able to generate. Even people who generally don't take to classical music will be pleasantly surprised.
The arrangements on these wonderful standards are absolutely charming and often surprisingly fun. Listen to how the Camillis swing on Let It Snow and The Most Wonderful Time of the Year! Even their straightforward rendition of Ave Maria, which I've always considered depressing funeral music, takes on a warm and lovely life of its own.
Get this one before it's gone for good. You won't regret it."
