This new recording presents original harp music written for the Christmas Season. Christmas, its magical atmosphere, carols, nativity scene, decorated trees, the snow outside, the warm intimacy of the house, has always been a source of inspiration for musicians and composers. The harp, with its gentle, comforting and luminous sound, proves to be a perfect and ideal carrier of the Christmas spirit. Included are harp compositions by Robert Nicolas-Charles Bochsa (1789-1856), Joseph Mazzinghi (1765-1844), Charles Oberthür (1845-1924), Edmund Schüecker (1860-1911), Johannes Snoer 1868-1936), Alphonse Hasselmans (1845-1912), Marcel Tournier (1879-1951), Henriette Renié (1875-1956), Marcel Grandjany (1891-1975), Marcel Samuel-Rousseau (1882-1955), Carlos Salzedo (1885-1961) and James Pierpont (1822-1893). Italian harpist Anna Pasetti is a successful soloist and musicologist, active in the research for unknown music for her instrument.
