· Navona Records is delighted to present DASHING, a
festive album for the holiday season featuring brand new
works and arrangements of holiday favorites by several
outstanding composers, with performances by The Stanbery
Singers, the Moravian Philharmonic Orchestra, and the Salt
Lake City Jazz Orchestra.

Familiar faces and tunes make appearances here, such as
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's perennial holiday favorite, Dance
of the Sugar Plum Fairy from his ballet The Nutcracker.
Henry Wolking provides a jazz arrangement of God Rest Ye
Merry Gentlemen; likewise, David Tanner contributes with
an arrangement of O Holy Night.
·
Composer Christopher J. Hoh has produced choral
commissions for The Stuttgart German-American Chorus,
and California's Meistersingers. In addition to several
current composition projects, he is also editing neglected
works from the European Renaissance and America for
performance.

L Peter Deutsch composes primarily for small instrumental
or a capella vocal ensembles, known for his modal
harmonies, fluent text setting, and lyrical melodies. His
work to date includes three choral commissions ("Brethren
and Lovers," San Francisco Gay Men's Chorus, 2008, "The
Dimensions of Love," Bay Choral Guild, 2011, and "Where
Everything is Music," Arizona Women in Tune, 2012).
