`Tis the season to add some rhythm to your holiday music collection! Koch International Classics is pleased to announce the release of This Christmas with Imani Winds, the first-ever holiday collection by Grammy-nominated woodwind quintet Imani Winds. Rather than a sit-by-the-fireside holiday CD, the Imani's have assembled a toe-tapping Christmas album, with an all-star rhythm section to add to their swinging collection. Backed by pianist Jason Moran, James Genus on bass, Nate Smith on drums and percussionist Javier Diaz, this collection demands listening. From traditional treatments of Sleigh Ride and The Holly and the Ivy, to gospel-tinged arrangements of Go Tell It on the Mountain and Silent Night, This Christmas with Imani Winds is a collection of thirteen yuletide favorites with the spirit and elegance that define Imani Winds. This recording is sure to become a favorite holiday collection.
