Description:
Christmas can be a wonderful time of year but often is plagued with overwhelm, loneliness and stress. My third album is dedicated to my father, Harold D. Lowry (1927-2014), who always encouraged me in my pursuit of music. May this album provide some precious rest and quiet in the midst of the bustle. Merry Christmas!
Try a sample by clicking on one or more of the small round CD buttons on the left. Then relax, settle in, and let the music flow around you and into the quiet places in your soul that yearn to be nourished.

Dear Susan,
Thank you for the treasure of your new Christmas album, and congratulations on the entire project! Nobody appreciates the number of decisions, big and little, that go into making an album. I really like the selection of songs, and I’m particularly happy to hear three I don’t know at all (numbers 5, 9 and 12). I think this will be popular – the recording quality is very good – there is real “presence” for all the instruments. Again, congratulations on an artistic success! Mitzie Collins
