Mr. Siepmann takes ...             Chanticleer: A Portrait Chanticleer, Ignacio Jerusalem, ... Teldec, 2003 A treasury As you can tell from the samples, the music here is amazing and covers a wide territory. It is less obvious that much of this is available on other CDs.

I deeply enjoy Christmas music - from the ancient, to jazz and pop - and main a diverse and festive holiday collection.
