"The Christmas Gift" - A unique collection of Christmas carols arranged and performed for solo piano by Boh Cooper. The stylistic interpretations of these pieces are quite different from traditional versions. Carols usually heard more serious in tone are treated much more playfully and lighthearted, while I composed much more passionate renderings of some that have lost their luster from years of being performed the same old ways. Taking liberty with meter, rhythm and tempo I have created a recording I absolutely love, and I think you will too.
