Michael Daniels is principal cellist of the Virginia Symphony Orchestra. His wife, Kathryn, has played flute with the orchestra and teaches. Linda Grieser, on harp, completes the trio. Together, they have created a beautiful, contemplative take on Christmas classics.
The arrangements are imaginative and the playing accomplished and stirring. They alternate taking the lead and laying the foundation for standards such as “O Holy Night” and traditionally songs from other lands.
- For anyone who needs to take a deep breath and …just …relax.
