Kenny G currently owns the smooth-jazz soprano sax with his popular, mainstream arrangements and compositions. And on his first holiday album, despite occasionally predictable charts and phrasing, the saxman delivers a thoughtful and moving collection of songs, spirituals, and hymns, with his trademark sound wedded to several ensemble and orchestral arrangements. The G-man stretches out in Sleigh Ride and Santa Claus Is Coming to Town, but these are balanced by more serious pieces such as the lovely, original Eternal Light ( A Chanukah Song) and Ave Maria. There s a genuine humbleness and inspired reverence in the playing here--as in, Kenny G really means it, man. After a ghost track, The Christmas Song, the record closes with a haunting audio history of America s last century, which runs under a revisited version of Auld Lang Syne. Summing up a turbulent and triumphant 100 years, this one is sure to put a lump in your throat and a tear in your eye. --Martin Keller
BEAUTIFUL! - Beautiful music, great for dinner parties, cocktail parties, or just sipping a glass of wine with your honey.
Kenny G s Faith is fantastic holiday listening! - Kenny G did it again in the late 1990 s with this CD of Christmas favorites. The way he performs is by far first rate. Auld Lang Syne Millenium version is a great tribute to the century gone by with the voices of the good news and bad during that time. I enjoyed listening to this instrumental collection and I know you will like it yourself!!
Holiday Music You ll Never Forget - Faith by Kenny G is Christmas music that is soothing and relaxing. This all instrumental album will allow you and your family to enjoy the holiday season while listening to great music.
He did it again - This album arrived two days before Christmas 2001. It has classic songs on it especially the hidden tracks Auld Lang Syne and The Christmas Song. Kenny G has Christmas in his name and especially if you like saxophone jazz music, this is a must to own.
I m Not a Fan - I m not a big Kenny G fan, but this album is pretty good. I don t care for the last track, the millenial mix, but the other songs on this album are nicely done. If you re looking for something a little jazzy to add to your holiday collection, I recommend this CD.
