Forever Christmas by Doug Young
Fifteen holiday instrumental arrangements featuring fingerstyle acoustic guitar, violin, cello, and recorder. This CD is for those who prefer a bit more production than just solo guitar. Some of the arrangements originally appeared in my instructional book, A DADGAD Christmas, but are now re-imagined with additional instruments. Others are new, and involve a variety of guitar tunings. Thanks to Laurel Thomsen, Bob Liepman, and Tom Lindemuth for adding their musical performance and arranging skills to this recording.
