DESCRIPTION:
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow (Styne, Cahn)

from the CD Prayer for peace - Marcus Roberts (piano) - Produced by Delfeayo Marsalis (1991) BMG

"With these solo piano versions of Christmas songs, Marcus Roberts reacquaints us with old musical friends and uses his charismatic gift for blues and swing to face one of the highest resposibilities of the serious artist: revitalizing the familiar. That is no simple problem, for the crux of human meaning is always about vitality, whether that vitality arrives through overt force or through the expressive discretion of the subtle - if not somewhere between or a fusion of both extremes."
