Merry Christmas, Darling
Merry Christmas, Darling written by Richard Carpenter with lyrics by Frank Pooler in 1970. This is my Christmas song release for 2023. Please forgive me, but there are a few spots in here where the piano is a bit off with the "band". If I had more time, it would be better, but I felt obligated to get it out on Christmas eve.
Preces and Responses (2020) in its world premiere performance live at St. Luke's Episcopal Church, Evanston, Illinois. Written for and performed by the choir of St. Luke's with celebrant Rev. Dr. Gloria Hopewell, conducted by Andrew Lewis, Choirmaster.
"Tea for Two" written in 1924 by composer Vincent Youmans and lyricist Irving Caesar for the broadway show "No, No, Nanette." It became the biggest hit of the show and of Youman's career in general. I particularly love this song because it was sung in the 1975 documentary "Grey Gardens" by Big Edie Beale in quite a stunning rendition! Here it is sung by my dear friend Kerry Kincanon who recently visited me in my home and we recorded this on the fly. I have been wanting to sit and play songs with her for such a long time! It was a great experience and we're sure to do it together again. This is just a great song and I'm pleased to post it here for it's (almost) centennial!
This is my new Christmas song release for 2022. As many of my friends know, it has become a tradition to release a new song every Christmas. This year’s is “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” with words and lyrics by Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane, written in 1944 and appearing in the MGM film “Meet Me in St. Louis”. This is a very low-key version of the song, not in terms of pitch, but in mood. It is a sad song, really, or at least it accompanies a sad scene in the film, and it matches my mood this year. I hope that anyone hearing this can take a little moment to enjoy it and appreciate those they have around them. Do not take them for granted.
This song also has special memories for me personally. I’ve loved it as long as a can remember and the last time I performed it publicly was in 1991 in a Christmas concert at my high school. I programmed it into a sequencer and used my keyboards to play it for the audience. It was a very early attempt by me of audio production and I was lucky to be able to share it with the audience then. Piano and vocals here by me, John Osterhagen.
This is my piano-only track of Skating by Vince Guaraldi, composed 1966 for the Charlie Brown Christmas Special on CBS. I did this for the vocal arrangement by Rosetta Sellers-Varella, but the tempo here was too fast, so I had to slow it down in post. This is with the original tempo.
