I can't believe that the holidays are just around the corner already. During November and December, I always find myself reaching for new music to put me in the festive mood.
A new artist on my ipod is Joshua Bell. I've just downloaded his latest album titled, At Home with Friends. At Home With Friends is based on the love Joshua has for inviting his friends over for informal musical evenings in his Manhattan home.
Get this, Joshua went as far as redesigning his home to include a "performance area, including sloping walls to maximize optimal sound for informal concerts. As an interior designer, impressed and intrigued.
The album is a compilation for Joshua (a Grammy Award Winning violinist) and his best musical buddies. I must admit, after looking over the album lineup, it's obvious that he keeps good company. With 16 amazing tracks on the album (some seasonal) my favorite artist include Sting, Kristin Chenoweth and Regina Spektor.
A fantastic musical compilation album for at home, in the office and during a dinner party. We love it for the holidays and know you will too.
GET YOUR OWN! Pick up this album today on iTunes or on Amazon.
WIN YOUR OWN! We have a copy of the album for one lucky Simple reader. Simply tell us why you would love to have it.

This would be fun to win because I don't own any type of music like that, but I would love to! And I think my one year old would appreciate it too. :)

I love seasonal music. I have a confession I just checked two holiday cds out from the library. I am so in the spirit already.
ReplyDeleteI always love new Christmas music. It just makes the season feel so much more seasoney. (Does that even make sense?)
ReplyDeleteA Joshua Bell and Edgar Meyer CD was my "relaxation music" during the births of both of my boys. I'd love to hear some more of his music... in a different context!! :)

I've been a fan of Joshua's for a long time & the idea of having friends over for a musical evening is something I've often done myself. Most of my friends are singers/actors & many of my evenings (pre-children) were spent sharing the love of music together. It would be a delight to hear Joshua & his friends!
ReplyDeleteI like to get a new music CD every Christmas - keeps things fresh!
