Masterclass Lady Reviews David’s Christmas Show
David Archuleta Reinforces The Magic Of Christmas His Way
This video featuring David Archuleta performing his original composition, “My Kind Of Christmas” brought such a smile to my face. The melody and the lyrics are brimming with the spirit and joy of the Christmas season and David’s performance captures the magic of the Christmas season so well.
Presently on a Christmas Tour with his “My Kind Of Christmas” show, David is following his own career path with the vision and passion he brought to American Idol Season Seven.
He has a very intelligent, strategic plan regarding his career, knowing full well that there is huge audience out there ready to embrace him with open arms.
To follow your dreams without the security blanket of a record label takes courage and maturity.
And, as David said, being tied to a record label is very restrictive for, given the nature of today’s music industry, it can be an erratic and disloyal partnership.
David has released a CDand DVD with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir called Glad Christmas Tidings.
It is an absolutely exquisite “watch and listen”, capturing the spirit of Christmas through stellar vocal and instrumental performances.
It is available for hard copy or digital purchase from Amazon.com or via ITunes.
Enjoy the video and make sure you share the joy in the comments section! Merry Christmas everyone!
02 Westbury Pix from excite
So, David had an interview w/ Forbes and while in their office, he had an impromptu performance! Let’s hope we get a sample of the “ambush concert”
Here are pix twitted by @Forbes & some of their staff
The setlist for Westbury is complete. Enjoy all the vids!
MP3 of the whole westbury show, thanks to StarryNite!
