That's Santa's Boogie  First duet for Gregory Charles and his daughter Julia

Here comes Santa BoogieGregory is the title of the first father-daughter duet Charles and Julia ever recorded, a gift they share for the holidays.


The piece, the original composition, is in a way a French response to the classic Santa Claus is stuck in my chimney, by Ella Fitzgerald, is Julia’s favorite Christmas song. “The beat is upbeat and makes us both laugh imagining Santa Claus stuck in the chimney on Christmas Eve,” says Gregory Charles, who accompanied the song’s release. But since the piano duo couldn’t find an equivalent in French, father and daughter challenged themselves to imagine. It took them a few hours to compose the festive boogie, inspired by watching Mom dance after kissing Santa Claus.

“In the beginning, it was just for us, to make our family happy, then we wanted to share our first father-daughter composition with all the families,” concluded the pianist, who said in passing that he is a real music lover of Christmas. ; Hymns, American classics of the holiday season, gospel, beau d’amage…Christmas at the Charles Rhymes with music.
