Christian Sands Trio - Christmas Stories
“...Christian Sands plays with a restrained touch and a rolling command across the entire keyboard.” — The New York Times
Christian Sands — Steinway Artist and 5-time GRAMMY® Nominee — is an emerging jazz force. Christian Sands’ cinematic approach to popular holiday classics takes center stage with Christmas Stories. Having performed in-demand Christmas shows at Jazz at Lincoln Center and around the world, Sands offers such classics as “Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!,” “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas,” “Silent Night,” “Jingle Bells,” and “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen,” as well as a few surprises.
Since arriving on the scene, Sands has shared the stage with such jazz luminaries as Wynton Marsalis, Dianne Reeves, Shelia E, Geri Allen, James Moody, Bill Evans (sax), Terence Blanchard, Patti Austin, and Wycliffe Gordon, as well as iconic cellist Yo-Yo Ma and many more. Whether it’s stride, swing, bebop, progressive, fusion, Brazilian or Afro-Cuban, Sands develops the past while providing unusual and stimulating vehicles for the present... and for the future.
