Few contemporary instrumentalists get into the holiday spirit quite like Kenny G. Of course, few contemporary instrumentalists have sold millions of copies of their first foray into seasonal music, as Mr. G did with the 1994 release of MIRACLES: THE HOLIDAY ALBUM. On his 1999 release, FAITH: A HOLIDAY ALBUM, the saxman once again proves he knows how to turn good tidings into sweet music. Training his beloved soprano sax, and equally cozy tenor, on holiday favorites like "The First Noel," "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town," "I’ll Be Home for Christmas," and "Auld Lang Syne," G delivers all the goods -- even these hardy tunes are given a joyous shot of contemporary flair. With a team that includes coproducer-arranger Walter Afanasieff and ace session players bassist Nathan East and keyboardist Greg Phillinanes, Kenny G brings rhythm and high style to songs that are, by now, part of our national tapestry. And being the egalitarian fellow that he is, Kenny even slips in an original holiday song, "Eternal Light (A Hanukkah Song)." David Cohen

This very nice man mostly chooses the bright, cheery soprano saxophone for his instrumental renditions of such classics as "We Three Kings," "O Christmas Tree," and "The First Noel" on the ten-track album. Featured tracks "Auld Lang Syne (Millennium Mix" and "The Christmas Song" propelled this album to double-platinum before the last Christmas trees went down. This is the follow-up to the equally successful Miracles (1994). Producer and arranger was Walter Afanasieff, Kenny's collaborator and the famed saxophonist on Classics. Tom Schulte
