Featuring heartwarming, quiet masterpieces such as "Star on Horizon" and "Greetings of the Season" by Shelby, and "Still," a collaboration with Greg, along with familiar Christmas songs, this is a must-have album for this holiday season! "Shelby's creativity, including her character, shines with originality without disrupting the nature of a Christmas album, and it's clear that Greg, who supports her, also possesses exquisite taste. Although they are a pianist and a singer, the fact that it's a collaboration between a man and a woman enhances the feeling of happiness. This is how a jazz Christmas album should be. That's the conclusion." - Toshihiko Terada (Rain and Holiday) / From the liner notes. Media reviews and more.
