My favorite Christmas piano influences

Recommended Posts

I always love Christmas time because I can pull out my Christmas Real Book .  Jazz and Christmas music really go together for me.  Of course who couldn't love Vince Guaraldi from all of his great Charlie Brown Christmas music?  He influenced my concept of Christmas jazz piano greatly!  But lately, my number one influence goes to Dave Grusin playing Some Children See Him.  I've learned so much from transcribing his ideas and techniques from this arrangement.  For me, this is the epitome of sensitivity and creativity!  I hope you enjoy it as much as I.
