RJE PRODUCTIONS LLC ANNOUNCES NOVEMBER RELEASE OF DYNAMIC DUO CHRISTMAS ALBUM

MADISON, WISCONSIN – Two years ago, Jelani Eddington and David Harris released their first collaborative recording effort, Fascinating Rhythms!. Today this Dynamic Duo returns with their second joint recording, featuring the music of the holiday season in a Christmas album titled Christmas Wonderland.



This album, scheduled for release on November 21, 2003, was recorded at the Wheaton-Fox Studio in the residence of Paul & Linda Van Der Molen in Wheaton, Illinois. The instruments featured on the album include the beautifully restored 4-manual 26-rank Wonder Morton, a Steinway "Model D" 9' concert grand piano (once played and signed by no less than Van Cliburn himself), and a Mason & Hamlin "Model CC" 9' concert grand piano.

Several years ago, Paul & Linda Van Der Molen embarked on a major renovation of their home and enlarged their 3-manual, 20-rank Robert Morton into the 4-manual 26-rank instrument it is today. In the process, the Van Der Molens acquired one of the five so-called "Wonder Morton" consoles, which the Van Der Molens had painstakingly and beautifully restored.

Christmas Wonderland contains some of the best-loved holiday music of all time, inluding: (FOLLOW THE LINK FOR A SNEAK-PEEK PREVIEW!)
