“Horizons” marks the first album release from concert and film composer Christopher Tyler Nickel. Performed by the acclaimed City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra and Chorus, and featuring two breath-taking flute solos by Jack Chen - the music is immediately accessible with its beautiful melodies, dramatic sweeping themes, and powerful orchestrations. From the epic, to the quiet and sentimental - this is music that will move the listener, and take them on a musical journey.
Christmas Dreams is an exciting piece that captures many of the feelings of the Holiday Season. A dreamy, nostalgic theme begins the piece, as if someone is waking on a crisp, clear winter's morning. This theme builds to an energetic section, which captures the hustle and bustle of the holiday season...planning, shopping, and visiting family and friends. Distant fragments of Christmas Carols are heard here and there between the energetic passages. Finally, the warm theme from the opening returns to remind us of the true meaning of the holiday season, of family, friends and the spirit of Christmas. This print edition includes score and parts.
