As you know, holiday music typically offers little or no musical depth, which leads to a less than enthusiastic reaction from the orchestra. Your piece offered a level of musical sophistication worthy of a professional symphony while still creating a festive holiday spirit. The orchestra and I enjoyed having the opportunity to dig into something substantive yet fun on our holiday concert. See composer website for audio sample.
