Matisse, Not Monet

Here's a fun one, depending on whether or not you like her voice. If you're not into it, then you might want to skip it. I'll quote the liner notes here that describe Miss Matisse as "Mezzo-Soprano" and "a background in oratorio, opera and concert." Take it for what you will. This is Janice Matisse With Paul Liljestrand At The Steinway-Janice Matisse Sings The Music Of Christmas AKA Janice Matisse Sings Christmas Favorites (Custom Audio Recording-Dick Beamer 3818, Mono, 1967). Three long medleys here with some spoken word linking it all together. Give it a try, you might like it.
