"Celebrate the holiday season with these beloved Christmas classics. "Christmas Healing, Vol. 1" is probably meant to be shared with small groups of family members and dear friends as Diane Arkenstone, Misha Segal, and friends delight our holiday cheers with their great musical talents. Diane's beautiful, soft, soothing voice adds warmth to these favorite carols, woven together by Misha's simple, yet delightful piano renditions along with the vibrant sounds of guitars played by Peter Hume. The wood flute in "O Come, O Come Emmanuel" also adds great delicacy to this album with its haunting, heart-tugging sounds. My favorites of these tunes are "Silent Night," "Joy to the World" and "We Wish You a Merry Christmas." Each has its own unique arrangements that are pleasant to listen to. Though whether you celebrate Christmas religiously or you are just a music enthusiast, like myself, this album will light up your holiday spirit as you define your own favorites among these carols. So go on, gather your groups of family and friends together and share this beautiful music!"
