- For this unique album Dutch pianist Jeroen Van Veen collected Christmas Songs from all over the world. The arrangements, either by well known musicians and/or by himself, present a wide spectrum of styles, from the most simple and intimate medieval song to an elaborate jazzy or minimalistic guise: a fascinating journey of moods, emotions and atmospheres, the well known melodies going through many unexpected transformations.

- Dutch pianist, pioneer and champion of Minimalism Jeroen van Veen plays the piano in his inimitable way: focused, serene and hypnotizing. Praise for Jeroen van Veen on Brilliant Classics: ‘Van Veen is quite brilliant in the quirky fourth [Philip Glass Etude] and his reading of the exquisite, valedictory 20th is excellent.’ Gramophone. ‘Jeroen van Veen’s recording can stand alongside the best from any source, and this [Arvo Pärt] set is worthy of high praise in every regard.’ MusicWeb International. ‘Van Veen is a supremely eloquent performer of his own music. His touch is remarkably varied, carrying none of the hammered urgency of, for example, Michael Nyman’s performances of Nyman.’ Fanfare.
