Moments Worth Listening For
The transition in the medley where the minor-key tension of Carol of the Bells dissolves into a smooth neo-soul piano vamp.
The way the vocal harmonies on Little Drummer Boy swell and recede like a slow tide over nearly seven minutes.
The intimate, dry piano opening of Memories With Mama that feels like a private living room performance.
