Bernstein/Schubert/Chapman –
Take one of the favorite Christmas songs of Operatically trained singers and stir in a little Broadway, then mix in a lot of attitude…
Oh yeah, special guest Rick Smith on Drums!

The normal take on this song is wrong. This is a seduction song, plain and simple. It needs to be slow, with Barry White wispering in your ear “Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it…snow!” Well, this version is not Barry White. So now the question is, who’s doing the seducing? A lover? A stalker? An axe murderer?

This is where the madness all began. Dore asked me to make a recording of Silver Bells that her First Graders could sing along with. My initial take was a simple, Mannheim Steamroller-like take, which I call Nice Silver Bells. Next, I had to do a version that was not as boring, and had a bit of energy to it, which I call Naughty Silver Bells (but which the First Graders could still sing along with).
