notes
Expect some sweet sounds from the duo “MacRaven” as award-winning composer and pianist Roger MacNaughton teams up with symphony cellist Steven VanRavenswaay on the piano/cello CD, “Winter Canvas.”
“The all-instrumental CD features a mix of Christmas favorites and originals arranged by MacNaughton whose blending of the piano and cello is seamless. Tracks of special note include the English ‘The Holly and the Ivy’ and the MacNaughton original ‘Christmas Eve.’ The arrangements of ‘Greensleeves’ and ‘Silent Night’ are well-executed with MacNaughton and VanRavenswaay having an opportunity to shine. In fact they shine brightly on all of the songs, playing well into each others talents, with the result making this CD a nice addition to any holiday collection.”
Joanne N. Bailey, Editor

Fans of the solo piano disc, “Cold-Hearted Orb,” will likely find much to enjoy in “Winter Canvas.” MacNaughton writes from the heart.

My new favorite Christrmas CD
author: Cynthia KayI bought 5 as Christmas gifts...one for me. This is now my most favorite Christmas CD. Peaceful. Uplifting. It captures the spirit of the season. Well done!
Two accomplished artists paint a delightful winter canvas...
author: YoyofanYou'll love this CD. The pieces are arranged very cleverly with an even split between piano and cello melodies. The artists play beautifully together to create a seamless duet of peaceful music. Winter Canvas is a CD that you'll want to listen to beyond the Christmas holiday.
Wish I bought more than 3!
author: Winter CanvasSuch a great collection of familliar and new Christmas music - I regret not buying more as gifts. The piano - cello combination really evokes thoughts of huge, peaceful snowfalls!
Excellent!
author: Storm PhillipsNow I know you CAN judge a CD by its cover. This is one beautiful collection of music. Don't wait for Santa; buy it for yourself this Christmas! You'll be enjoying it long after 12/25.

Winter Canvas was the best present I could get down here in Brazil! It is a pleasure to appreciate so many beautiful songs; I have no doubt how wonderful and perfect the harmonic between piano and cello is!

What a blessing to find music that gives so much emotional pleasure. The Cello pulls at my heart and the piano lifts my spirits. By far the best CD I have bought this year. I love every song, would highly recommend!

Love it! I have the CD in my car and have listened to it over and over. The combination of the piano and cello is absolutely perfect; they blend together to make a wonderful musical experience! Roger and Steven are so talented. I recently purchased 9 additional copies to send to family members as a pre-holiday gift.
Nice variations on some Christmas classics without feeling like a Christmas albu
author: John M.We've had this CD a week and already listened to it many times. Beautiful combination of piano and cello that works well to sit back and relax, to have on while cooking and eating, or as background music while working. Nice variations on some Christmas classics without feeling like a Christmas album.
