Sensitivity and warmth are two key elements in the piano playing style of Danny Wright. With his light, gentle touch, he transforms holiday standards into lilting lullabies for the spirit on AN INTIMATE CHRISTMAS. The album features Wright's solo piano renditions of holiday favorites like "The First Noel," "O Come O Come Emmanuel," "Silent Night," "Carol of the Bells" and many others. With most of the songs, the pianist chooses to add his own improvisations to the melodies rather than strictly adhere to the core song. This gives the music a sense of elegance and freshness. In addition to the standards are several original compositions, including "Peace Within" and "My Son's Lullaby."
