Kurt Bestor’s first Christmas album in 2 decades is finally here! Christmas Time is Here is sure to take its place among Bestor’s previous best-selling holiday offerings. From solo piano songs like “Coventry Carol” to jazzier renditions like “Christmas Time is Here” and full-orchestrated songs like “Noël Novoulete” - the album is classic Bestor with its unique and ear-catching arrangements. Since 1987, with the release of An Airus Christmas, Kurt Bestor has been at the forefront of holiday contemporary instrumental music. With his fresh takes on classic Christmas carols, he remains at the top of many people’s Yuletide play lists. Christmas Time is Here follows in the same tradition with unique arrangements featuring Bestor on piano and flugelhorn. He is joined on the album by top studio musicians in Los Angeles and Salt Lake City including renowned bassist Carlitos del Puerto and drummer/producer Eric Valentine.

What is High-Resolution Audio?

High-resolution audio offers the highest-fidelity available, far surpassing the sound quality of traditional CDs. When you listen to music on a CD or tracks purchased via consumer services such as iTunes, you are hearing a low-resolution version of what was actually recorded and mastered in the studio. ProStudioMasters offers the original studio masters — exactly as the artist, producers and sound engineers mastered them — for download, directly to you.

What do I need for playback?

You may need additional software / hardware to take full advantage of the higher 24-bit high-res audio formats, but any music lover that has heard 16-bit vs 24-bit will tell you it's worth it!
