A Warm New Christmas Release From Soul de Vienne
The latest release from Soul de Vienne has a wonderful way of bringing a wonderful spirit and uplifting, colorful, and vibrant musical approach with lush instrumentation and a contemporary backbone that shares the sentiment of love at Christmas time and how warm and inviting that is.
"The Magic of Christmas" has some amazing performances throughout its course, starting with piano as the base of the song and really just driving these gorgeous melodies through and through, while horn sections come into play thickening up the atmosphere and really giving things a bit of a cinematic feel, which is something that goes hand in hand with the joy of Christmas in general.
There's such a great emotion just shining through this entire release, and it's completely infectious.
Some amazing trumpet sections really let the song have a welcoming drive and bells that ring here and there, pushing more of the Christmas spirit and giving it some of the classic, old-school style holiday sound and texture that goes with the territory.
The vocal performance throughout this thing is amazing. The vocalist gives the song so much light-hearted and elegant tonality, which blends amazingly with the composition and instrumentation of the song automatically, because all of it comes together, and the vocals bring a fresh texture to everything, giving the song exactly what it needed.
A lot is going on here, and it's amazing how this was all put together because there's a lot of different instruments and sections that fit like puzzle pieces to create such a wonderful atmosphere, and all the while, they can give you this sounds game that wraps its arms around you and gives you a warm hug.
This is exactly the kind of thing that I want from a Christmas song. I want to feel spirited, joyous, and good, while bringing a lot of that wonderful emotion to the table, and this is something that not every Christmas song delivers.
I like a song for the holidays that has love involved. It doesn't have to be love of one specific significant other, but more just love in general. The love of family, the love of the holidays, the love of the Christmas spirit, just takes over, and being excited about either the fact that you're going to see your family or someone special again, or you're going to spend time with the people that you are around every day, in a different manner.
Christmas, and the holidays in general, are very special for a lot of people, and I think it's important to make sure that you combine the love and importance of another person or people with the holiday spirit, because without that, the holidays don't mean quite as much.
This song represents all of that in one shot, and does it with a robust and full-bodied, orchestrated, and again, very cinematic feeling soundscape that borders a classic contemporary approach but brings in flares of other genres like jazz.
Soul de Vienne is an Austrian Collective helmed by producer and composer Roman Schleischitz, and you can tell that Christmas is quite a special day for Roman.
This was quite a single and just in the nick of time. A song that bends genres in certain ways and takes that pop overcoat and lends a hand to the classic contemporary, and Jazz elements while bringing in the love sentiment, and keeping things colorful and tasteful.
I would definitely check this out because not only is it the time of year, but it's also such a feel-good thing to hear new Christmas songs you haven't heard before.
I personally welcome new Christmas songs, especially ones like this, because again, combining the sentiment of love with the Christmas spirit is something more Christmas songs should do.
Check this one out right now and start getting into the spirit yourself.
