I recently wrote some string arrangements for Wendell Kimbrough’s forthcoming Christmas album. One was a fairly straightforward Psalm song. The other was a funky version of “Angels We Have Heard on High.” I binge-listened to Chic, Donna Summer, Sister Sledge, and Silver Convention so I’d get the string sound just right. Behind the scenes, the arrangement went by “Disco Angels.” Here’s a picture of last night’s tracking session. I can’t wait to hear the final recording!
