Another New Sounds Christmas
Friday, December 24, 2010
Sean Smith
Hear many holiday tunes, including Christmas carols, done up New Sounds-style for this holiday program. We'll hear from a new recording of non-syrupy Christmas music from accomplished Bay-area guitarist Sean Smith. Plus, an arrangement of a Christmas carol framed by an alap, traditional a cappella music from Slovenia, and an old favorite from John Fahey and Richard Rushkin. All that, and more.
