Sandoval has recorded his share of Christmas music in the past. In 1991, his recording of "O Come All Ye Faithful" was included on "The GRP Christmas Collection II". "Jingle Bells" and "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" appear on the 2001 collection "Playboy's Latin Jazz Christmas" (Later re-issued as just "Latin Jazz Christmas"). And, in 2013, Arturo released an EP of Christmas music, "I Want To Wish You A Merry Christmas". But still no full Christmas album.
On October 5, Universal Latino released Arturo Sandoval's "Christmas at Notre Dame", a live holiday performance recorded last year which also features the Notre Dame Children's Choir. Sandoval is in top form throughout, offering memorable performances on "The Christmas Song", "Ave Maria", "O Come All Ye Faithful", "All I Want For Christmas Is You"...well, on every track, really. Personally, I'd have preferred an Arturo Sandoval Christmas album without vocalists and children's choirs, but that's just me.
