Christmas is a-coming and the goose is getting fat, and with it Christmas music, drummer boys, choirs, bells and other assorted accompaniment abound, from string quartets and French horns to orchestras and brass bands.  A  sparkling new addition to the holiday music catalogue this year, without all the bells and whistles, is simply called Simply Christmas, featuring simply piano and one voice – Robin Harper’s.

Teaming up with pianist Marvin Goldstein, talented vocalist Robin is celebrating the intimacy and simplicity of the holidays by putting a new twist on the Christmas standards we all started whistling right after Thanksgiving, including “The Christmas Song,” “White Christmas,” “Santa Baby,” and “Silent Night.”   Here’s a little sample: Robin Harper/Simply Christmas.
“This is the time of year when music helps us renew our faith as well as our sense of fun,” Robin said.  “I wanted to combine the two by choosing songs close to our hearts, jazz them up a little and have a good time with them. And with just us – Marvin’s marvelous piano accompaniment and me – it’s like we’re in your living room, sharing an intimate holiday gathering with your family,” she said.

Robin has always loved to perform and has sung in church all her life, envisioning her future one day as a country singer.  Growing up in California’s Orange County, she veered away from country at one point as a member of the DavElliott5, a jazz vocal ensemble.  Then life happened.  A husband and family. Four kids.    Robin’s love of music has never waned, however, and now her life has come full circle, back to music, with this first offering of musical holiday cheer.

Sometimes, they say, less is more and with Simply Christmas, no truer words were ever spoken…or sung.
