To Each His Own Holiday For Strings by Modernaires With Paula Kelly is a delightful and nostalgic album that takes listeners on a journey through the golden age of swing music. The Modernaires, a vocal group that rose to fame in the 1940s, are joined by the equally talented Paula Kelly, a dancer and actress who starred in many classic Hollywood musicals.
The album features a mix of classic holiday tunes and original compositions, all arranged with lush strings and jazzy horns. The Modernaires' harmonies are as tight and polished as ever, and Paula Kelly's sultry vocals add a touch of glamour and sophistication to the proceedings.
Highlights include the swinging "Jingle Bells" and the romantic ballad "Winter Wonderland." The original songs, such as "Holiday for Strings" and "Christmas in Killarney," capture the spirit of the season with catchy melodies and clever lyrics.
