Do You Hear What I HearFeaturing Peter Calo on guitars, along with Bruce's sax, this album expresses the more contemporary side of the group. The 18 tracks on this classic recording range from J.S. Bach to Irving Berlin, all creatively arranged by the group to create a timeless holiday mood. Filling out the sound are a trio of Broadway's finest string players, and the amazing background vocals of folk/rock mainstays Devonsquare.
