“All is Merry and Bright" finds Donald Vega teaming up once again with GRAMMY award-winning engineer/producer Jim Anderson. They recently collaborated on Vega’s last album, “As I Travel”, (Imagery Records, 2023). The recording of “All is Merry and Bright” renders every inflection of Vega’s piano with such presence and clarity, perfectly complementing Donald's art which is defined by his melodic phrasing and signature light touch.
The sessions for “Merry & Bright", recorded, mixed, and mastered in Digital eXtreme Definition (352.8kHz/32bit), are among Anderson Audio's finest engineering achievements with Ulrike Anderson overseeing the technical production. The immersive version was mixed at Skywalker Sound, Marin County, California, and mastered by 2L’s Morten Lindberg in Norway.
"All is Merry and Bright" is a vibrant collection of holiday classics and cherished tunes, thoughtfully arranged to encapsulate the warmth and joy of the season. Vega’s expert touch and melodic arrangements aim to resonate with listeners, creating a soundtrack that will become a staple of their holiday traditions.
Joining Vega on the album are longtime friends and fellow Juilliard alumni Pete Van Nostrand on drums and Clovis Nicolas on bass, both highly sought-after collaborators and award-winning musicians. “This album is all about creating a fun, festive vibe,” says Vega, “and what better way to do that than to create music with friends you’ve known for nearly twenty years.”
Join Donald Vega this holiday season and let "All is Merry and Bright" be the musical backdrop to your festive celebrations.
