PROJECT COMPLETED

Congratulations to Wayne Manca, who has fulfilled his dream
to produce an outstanding CD of holiday music.
He selected songs that capture the myriad of emotions
we feel during the holidays,
and collaborated with his talented musician and vocalist friends
to deliver memorable interpretations for listeners.

A few facts about the CD:
From inception to pressing, less than one year in the making
Completed as planned for the 2010 holiday season
Features contemporary, traditional, country, jazz, and rock renditions
More than 40 Players and Singers
More than 400 hours of recording time
A few friendships date back to the 1960's
The title, WHITE WONDERLAND, originates from lyrics in an original song
penned for the album, written by co-producer James Waine Carpenter.
