Winter's Dream captures the spirit and beauty of Christmas with original songs and refreshing new interpretations of classic carols. Using sounds from throughout the world, these instrumentals are a rich blend of ancient and new. From the earthy and exotic "We Three Kings" to the graceful and sublime "Oh Holy Night" you'll experience an evocative journey through the stillness of winter to the glory of Christmas. A beautiful album!

Dear Listener,

Rob and I started on this musical path in 1985, and each time we complete another project I become even more in awe of his musical talents. The new album, Winter's Dream, is one of the those rare Christmas albums that you will want to listen to over and over, whether it is the holiday season or not. Now sit back and let the true meaning of Christmas be stirred by Rob's music.

Thanks,
Jim Moeller

Dear Listener,

My personal sense of what Christmas means has deepened throughout the years, and I find myself appreciating more than ever the ways in which the inevitable seasons of nature and the slow, spiraling quest of the human spirit complements each other. In this context, renewal becomes a primary aspect of life's strategy. Christmas reminds me to rededicate myself to the consciousness that Christ brought to our universe, and to create circumstances, internal and external, that on a daily basis remind me to return to loving.

The plan for Winter's Dream was to write a music album evoking the spiritual journey of Christmas, the glory of God's creation, the night of the soul seeking for the light, the choosing for love, and the joy and wonder of it all! This music is about renewal, forgiveness, and the rededication of the heart. I sought clear, simple orchestrations, with echoes of the exotic lands and times that are part of Christianity's ancient lineage. I also wanted to create an album of traditional Christmas songs that could be appreciated any time of the year. From our hearts and through this music, we wish you joy.

Sincerely,
Rob and Jill Whitesides-Woo

Thanks to my parents, James and Margie Woo, for being so patient, loving and supportive. To my wife Jill, for being my best friend, wisest companion, and constant source of joy.
