A smooth holiday escape wrapped in velvet tones and warm December glow.

Jazzy Little Christmas is a cozy collection of holiday originals that blend festive charm with a touch of late-night lounge magic. These songs drift between soft piano glimmer, upright bass sway, brushed-drum shimmer, and the gentle kiss of winter melodies that feel like stepping into a candle-lit jazz club after the first snowfall.

Each track brings its own mood —
🎷 a little swing,
🎹 a little sentiment,
🌙 a little nostalgia,
✨ and a whole lot of heart.

From slow-dancing under twinkle lights to sipping cocoa by the fire, this album celebrates the quieter side of Christmas — the memories, the longing, the joy, the softness, and the small moments we hold onto all our lives.

This is holiday music for dreamers, night owls, and anyone who loves December wrapped in warmth and wonder.

Birdwatching 

Point your eyes up to the trees and keep your ears wide open
Stand right next to me and keep your mouth closed
Stay light on your feet and hear the whip a whip a whistle
Stand right next to me and keep your mouth closed!

I promise you it’s worth your time  and now the part that matters
Is the language of the flying things, the words you can’t imagine
Telling stories from the tops of trees 
Of feathers web and worms and swarming bees!      
When we go birdwatching
            
Your binoculars are key keep them aimed up at the trees
listen carefully and keep your mouth closed!
It’s difficult at first It could be bells or wood or metal
As you open up your ears I know you heart will follow

Oh, little one, it’s worth your time and now it’s all that matters
Is the language of the flying things, the words you can’t imagine
Telling stories from the tops of trees 
And riding currents on the breeze
When we go birdwatching

Cackle caw whip and chatter           
Chip and chirrup crow and clatter
Chitter clack rush and titter             
Pip and thrill hoot and twitter
Tweet and clang flutter flap                
Chirp and hum, flicker, quack 
Whoop whoop whoop,    
Trum trum trum trum trumpet!!!

And from far off chickadee I hear a chirp and then a sizzle
I’ll stand right next to you and keep my mouth closed
We’ll listen and resist the urge to join in with a whistle
Looking up into the trees, we’ll feel the wind blow

I promise when you grow up you’ll remember understanding
The language of the flying things, you won’t have to imagine   
The stories from the tops of trees 
The questions answered only by the breeze
When we went birdwatching 

They sang Aliyah
They sang Aliyah

The Definitive Sheep Song

The Search

Questa è la versione originale del brano Fade Away (Dissolvenza) da me composto e riarrangiata da EnricoSonOro che pubblicai verso la fine di giugno. L'ho voluta pubblicare per mostrare come un artista riesce a sconvolgere completamente un brano senza tradire però la natura stessa del brano.

This is the original version of the song Fade Away (Dissolvenza) composed by me and rearranged by EnricoSonOro which I published towards the end of June. I wanted to publish it to show how an artist can completely upset a song without betraying the very nature of the song.

Dissolvenza (Fade Away)

A little tune for those in the Autumn of life who may have lost a spouse or maybe never married but have found someone very special and find themselves "falling again" in love.  
Annie @annie-smart-1 loved this tune and asked to collaborate on it which can be heard on her Cloud by following the link.  It is lovely in every way, and I am so honored by her collaboration.

No. I'm not going anywhere.  Not today, at least. ;-)  This track felt a little wistful at times.  Like you feel when it finally starts to cool down at night in the fall and you begin thinking that summer is taking down its tent for the year.  A time to say Adios Verano.

Adios Verano

Some slow Latin vibes for my new song. 😊🎶🎹🎼🎤🎵💕
