Marc André’s new EP, Christmas, is a four-track collection reimagining beloved holiday classics for double bass and piano.
Treating the deep, resonant timbre of the double bass as his personal vocal line, André uses his own nuanced arrangements to transform timeless melodies into an intimate, elegant festive experience. From the lyricism of “White Christmas”—inspired by Jascha Heifetz’s celebrated interpretation—to contemplative takes on “Silent Night” and “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas,” through to a playfully reimagined “Santa Baby,” Christmas delivers a warm, fireside sophistication crafted for winter evenings.
