Congrats on your Finalist win Adam, such an excellently-wrought and powerful poem!
Jeff. Beautifully done—music I have just shared with my family gathered under our Christmas tree on a late evening Christmas Eve on the Pacific coast in southwest Washington.
Thank you, Jeff, and Merry
Christmas to you and your family.
Thanks Jim and the best wishes to you and yours at this special time. Late evening on the Pacific coast sounds idyllic.
Jeff, you remind me to practice my part for our festive prelude to Christmas Mass in the morning. Good thing you practiced these tidings of comfort and joy so well earlier. Have a Merry Christmas!
Thanks Margaret. I know that your part in the festive prelude is going to be spot-on. Best wishes to you and family for a memorable day.
How beautiful to hear these songs magnificently played on Christmas morning. Thank you, Jeff, for sharing these. I plan on sending you some of my songs for you to play next year.
Thanks Roy and I will look forward to that. I have fond memories of “Tucson Sunday morning” which could be a massive hit Stateside. Hope you have a lovely day.
You’ve also regaled Nouakchott, Mauritania, Jeff. Thanks for the festive contribution to Christmas here.
And best wishes to you Paul. I now know of Nouakchott, a great “What is the capital of Mauritania” pub-quiz question if ever there was one. Best wishes to you and yours out there.
A tardy but heartfelt expression of gratitude, Jeff, for this wonderful medley. I enjoyed listening to it very much. Thank you for sharing your musical gifts with us. Here’s hoping you had a wonderful Christmas and that you will have a happy, healthy, prosperous 2025!
Beautifully played Jeff – I’m in awe!
