Reviews for Jazz on a Winter´s Night + CD: 11 Christmas classics for jazz piano
Jazz music and Christmas have a beautifully nostalgic association for many, and it's no surprise that jazz pianist Nikki Iles' Jazz on a Winter's Night has been such a huge success since its 2009 publication, spawning outstanding sequels in Jazz in Springtime, Jazz on a Summer's Day and Jazz in Autumn, - each including a selection of seasonally themed jazz standards and originals from Nikki herself . . . Jazz on a Winter's Night has established itself as my all-time favourite Christmas music book.
