Greta Matassa moves from triumph to triumph.
Christopher Loudon, Jazz Times

A collection of rare holiday gems from some of the greatest composers of our generation, including Henry Mancini, Burt Bacharach and Johnny Mandel. Nostalgic yet fully contemporary arrangements are masterfully performed by Greta Matassa, one of Seattle's most beloved singers. This recording also features the marvelous singing voice of bassist Clipper Anderson on several duets and featured solo tunes. "Greta Matassa is one of America's finest singers, and stands firmly among the best in today's jazz." - Jazz Review
