Mannheim Steamroller Fresh Aire Christmas 1988 CD

Also available in the CHRISTMAS COLLECTION box set with CHRISTMAS EXTRAORDINARE, CHRISTMAS and CHRISTMAS IN THE AIRE.

To the outstanding ensemble sound of Mannheim Steamroller, Davis adds the majestic fanfare of a brass choir in this second seasonal recording gem. "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing" resounds with vibrant glory that only brass instruments can evoke, while the enchanting "Little Drummer Boy" brings us the magic of Santa's workshop... ~ MusD
