Time to share another video with you all that was shared with Moonlight Chill on our YouTube channel. Continuing with the Christmas theme, this video was shared with us last year by JustRelaxVideos.
The video is a collection of Christmas and seasonal music set to the scene and background noise of a roaring and relaxing fireplace.
The carols included on the 25 minute video, all played beautifully on the piano, include the following;
Hark The Herald Angels Sing
O Come All Ye Faithful
Silent Night
The First Noel
The background noise of the fireplace really adds to the sense of sitting around a fireplace, snug and warm, on a cold winter's night - and yet it does this without intruding on the music.
This video has been added to Moonlight Chill's Christmas playlist on YouTube which (so far) provides more than five hours of background Christmas music.
As ever, if you enjoy the video then please pay a visit to the YouTube channel of JustRelaxVideos and check out their other relaxing instrumental music videos.
This video is also available as an app from the iTunes app store in full HD and with unlimited playtime. Find out more at https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/fireplace...

Gianni Bardaro, Pierluigi Villani -- UNFOLDING ROUTES [Jazz] ( EmaRcy / Universal)
The next video that i am posting, from those that have been sent with me to share, is one highlighting an album release from 18 months ago. It's a little delayed, but better late than never. Normally I wouldn't post a video that is an advertisement for an album, however something about this one caught my ear and so I am passing it on.
The following is pasted directly from the YouTube video description;
"Unfolding Routes" is the new album by Italian saxophonist and composer Gianni Bardaro, in collaboration with drummer and co-leader Pierluigi Villani. The album showcase original compositions by both leaders exploring the difficult TRIO constellation and ranging influences from post-bop, avant garde, contemporary jazz, as well as South American rhythms.
UNFOLDING ROUTES was recorded in Copenhagen, featuring musicians of different nationality such as Andreas Hatholt from Denmark on bass/contrabbas and Yohan Ramon from Cuba, on percussions.
- "Even though it's another lesson in concision, we can't help but anticipate more great music, from Gianni Bardaro and Pierluigi Villani -- individually and especially together. In the meantime, enjoy your pudding while it lasts, knowing though there's surely more from where this came!" - By Laurence Donohue-Greene, Managing Editor. The New York City Jazz Record.
- "Bardaro, with one exception, shies away from unnecessary saxophone embellishments such as double tones, squeals and squawks; he's simply too good a creator on his own to have to do so. His duo with Villani ("Gateway") ends the session on a rhythmic fifteenth round with the drummer's frantic kit work—and shrewdly, like that infinite horizon, without melodic resolution...Rest assured, Unfolding Routes is an acquired aural taste. However, it's a robust ride of intelligence, beauty and energy. Hitchhiking is recommended."

Isle Of View - a music video poem by duvid
Time to share another beautiful video that was shared with me on Moonlight Chill. This video is a very clever music video poem. The creator has chosen a beautiful and relaxing piece of music and set it to amazing shots of nature and the words of a beautiful poem.
Just as with the previous shared video, this video was sent to me over two years ago, and as with the last one I can't believe that it has so few views. It deserves far more. Please take a look and then have a look around Duvid's channel.
The video that he shared is called Isle Of View:
I would like to thank Duvid for sharing this video with me, and through it his channel. I only wish I had looked earlier as it really is a beautifully calm and relaxing piece of music, as are the others on his excellent YouTube Channel.

Sharing Shared Videos
Moonlight Chill was created out of a love of good music and the desire to share the music I love with a wider audience. At no point did I ever expect that audience to be anything more than a handful of people who stumbled across my channel. The fact that thousands of people have now subscribed to the channel, and that the channel now has millions of views, still astonishes me. It is good to share my musical tastes with others - as eclectic as those tastes are.
One of the privileges of having so many subscribers is that when I do produce new videos I have a ready made audience to view those videos and to get the ball rolling by recommending those videos to friends on YouTube, Facebook and Google+.
Anybody who produces a new YouTube video faces an uphill battle to gain even a handful of views simply due to the number of new videos that they are competing with. One of the methods that some people use to publicise their new videos is to share them with other channels in the hope that they will enjoy the video and then help to spread the word. Moonlight Chill regularly receives requests to share new videos with subscribers but, as someone who notoriously neglects keeping up to date with inbox messages and comments, I have not done anything about these requests to date.
I have decided to start posting some of the shared videos on this blog to provide a helping hand to other video producers. I wont be able to post every video shared with Moonlight Chill, nor would I want to. I will try to strike the right balance between keeping the shared videos within the context of the Moonlight Chill channel, while also including new ideas and content to spread the boundaries of what is offered.
I wont make any promises as to how often I will post shared videos. Moonlight Chill is a labour of love carried out in my (limited) spare time. For the most part it is a selfish indulgence that I use to enjoy listening to music I love rather than spending time creating or posting. However, I will do my best!
