▓████▓▌ Since 1997, the Dave Koz & Friends Christmas Tour ▓▌
▓████▓▌ has evolved from a handful of concerts by the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ beloved saxman and pianist David Benoit to a ▓▌
▓████▓▌ 30-plus-city national phenomenon also featuring ▓▌
▓████▓▌ fellow genre all-stars Peter White and Rick Braun ▓▌
▓████▓▌ and singer Brenda Russell. The original tour came ▓▌
▓████▓▌ in support of his popular 1997 seasonal offering ▓▌
▓████▓▌ December Makes Me Feel This Way, but the show has ▓▌
▓████▓▌ taken on an incredibly joyful creative life of its ▓▌
▓████▓▌ own, prompting Koz and his cohorts to create an ▓▌
▓████▓▌ exciting studio recording which captures the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ powerful emotion, warmth, and special familial ▓▌
▓████▓▌ spirit of these shows. Featuring unique ensemble ▓▌
▓████▓▌ arrangements of timeless classics, a handful of ▓▌
▓████▓▌ several Koz originals (including the brand new ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Koz/Benoit collaboration "Beneath the Moonlit ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Sky"), and musical surprises by the sleigh-load, A ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Smooth Jazz Christmas By Dave Koz & Friends is ▓▌
▓████▓▌ contemporary music's premier event for Christmas ▓▌
▓████▓▌ 2001. The experience begins the same way as the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ live performance, with a lengthy medley ("The ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Overture") introducing each artist one by one; in a ▓▌
▓████▓▌ complete blend of styles, the songs include "Let It ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Snow," "Winter Wonderland," "What Child Is This?," ▓▌
▓████▓▌ "Angels We Have Heard on High," "Jingle Bells," and ▓▌
▓████▓▌ "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town," the latter segment ▓▌
▓████▓▌ featuring Brenda Russell. Russell also adds her ▓▌
▓████▓▌ lush vocal presence to "The Christmas Song," while ▓▌
▓████▓▌ the medley of "O Tannenbaum/Sleigh Ride" moves from ▓▌
▓████▓▌ a playful Vince Guaraldi-like groove to a feisty ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Latin explosion. The gang creates a gentle, moody ▓▌
▓████▓▌ atmosphere for "Silent Night," while "Beneath the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Moonlit Sky" features a wild moodswing from smoky ▓▌
▓████▓▌ soprano sax/piano duet to guitar, trumpet, and sax ▓▌
▓████▓▌ jam. "The Little Drummer Boy" is an exciting ▓▌
▓████▓▌ showcase for Braun's trumpet over a marching drum ▓▌
▓████▓▌ beat, while "Hark the Herald Angels Sing" features ▓▌
▓████▓▌ a bluesy solo improvisation by Benoit. Koz sang on ▓▌
▓████▓▌ the original recording of the title track to ▓▌
▓████▓▌ December Makes Me Feel This Way, and gives the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ reins here to the incomparable voice of pop ▓▌
▓████▓▌ superstar Kenny Loggins. Russell found the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ intensely energetic '40s big-band gem "Boogie ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Woogie Santa Claus," and it's since become a ▓▌
▓████▓▌ showstopper live; Koz and Braun create a potent ▓▌
▓████▓▌ horn section here as well. Cozy readings of "Have ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" and "White ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Christmas" are followed by a festive and folksy Koz ▓▌
▓████▓▌ original for Hanukah, "Eight Candles" (featuring ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Peter White on accordion), and a passionate new ▓▌
▓████▓▌ recording of Russell's classic "Get Here." Here as ▓▌
▓████▓▌ in the show, the encore/grand finale is "It Was the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Night Before Christmas," featuring each member of ▓▌
▓████▓▌ the band reciting a verse of the famous poem over a ▓▌
▓████▓▌ bouncy, finger-snap-driven groove. One of the most ▓▌
▓████▓▌ diverse and original smooth jazz Christmas CDs ▓▌
▓████▓▌ ever. ▓▌
