"I have ALWAYS admired Nadja, as a violin student, and a musician.
I always looked for a christmas album that was different, and extremely enjoyable at the same time, and now I have found it!
I love it so much! :)"
Nadja's Christmas music is outstanding!

Not One of Nadja's Brighter Moments

"Nadja Salerno-Sonnenberg has always been one of my favorite violinists and favorite musicians. I've heard her in at least 6 live concerts and they were all fantastic - she has a lot to offer the world of music.
However, this disc is extremely annoying. Now, Nadja has always had tons of musical spunk, and she has made it work well interpretively for big concertos and sonatas and other showpieces. But it simply does not work here. "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" with tons of glissandi and other various centuries-old carols with 'nouveau' jazz effects just isn't appealing. The vocal soloists on a couple of the tracks are pretty bad too. Anyhow, I highly recommend Nadja's other recordings. Not this one, though. I am pretty sure she did this disc for the purpose of holiday party music. But there are tons of other better Xmas party music discs out there by big artists."
