Speaking by phone from her studio, Wilton said the simple snow angel speaks of the season. I have so many traditional carols. I enjoy the Wilton engineer some of them with a new arrangement, if you have the piece, and feel that it is more seasonal approach just started for me.
their supporters to say, the Wilton innate ability to tell a story without words is her unique gift.

For example, the opening track, thanks for the Thanksgiving clever title. Thanks a previously recorded song with a full and joyous melody, setting the stage for the rest of the season albumand. Snowfall is a new original song, which called Wilton images of a world shaken fresh snow with a high average scores falling snowflakes. The cascading piano melodies and sparkling sound effects are the key speedsall different snowflakes fall include a film context of the imaginative ingenuity of people like Richard Wright and Thomas Newman. In fact, the artist has a special effort to the crystalline sound re-recording it on a beautiful restored 1909 Steinway Model B piano perfect for achieving the clearest high notes.

Traditional Christmas Carol favorites in all their glory and is adorned with an amazing variety of purity, harmony and joy of piano playing. Angels we have a high audience, is a classic, Michele holds quite traditional, but not without infusion, a melodious mixture of over-friendly sound. The next piece, O Holy Night, is a traditional song that gives the childlike spirit in all of us, with good King Wenceslas.
