  • Holly cole Christmas

    by KFANS on 2012-12-22National Arts Centre / Centre national des Arts - OttawaRating: 4 out of 5

    Great! Was expecting more Xmas songs though! Enjoyed the Christmas songs she did sing very much!

  • Holly Jolly Time!

    by Bellylaugh on 2012-12-22National Arts Centre / Centre national des Arts - OttawaRating: 5 out of 5

    Fantastic concert by a great Canadian talent. We had not had the opportunity to see Holly Cole in concert before and now know what we have been missing. It was a superb concert with hits from her lastest CD "Night" and several Christmas favourites. Her band was in excellent form and the fact that the show was being taped for CBC Radio added to the performance level. All in all, a fabulous evening at the NAC!

    An excellent performance. Holly Cole, a great Canadian talent , put on an amazing evening of entertainment.

    We've been to see Holly Cole 4 times for a "Christmas" concert and except for the 1st time when she was actually promoting her Christmas album, we were disappointed with the number of Christmas songs she sang. This concert was the same - she may have sang 4 Christmas songs in the entire set and unfortunately for us, not our favourites. There was also too much focus on the woman playing the horns - I think there was maybe 4-5 songs where she didn't have a solo. I wouldn't normally mind this but the volume was louder and the overall sound was not that great. Unfortunately this will be our last attempt at seeing a Christmas performance by Holly Cole.

  • Happy "Holly-days" !

    Christmas just wouldn't be the same without a visit from Holly Cole... This year was no exception, and she and her ensemble put on another steller performance for the sold out crowd at the NAC. She didn't really perform as many Christmas themed songs as we were expecting from an event themed as a Christmas show, but it was still a wonderful evening. This particular show was also being recorded for a Christmas Eve / Day broadcast on CBC Radio 2, so the performance was somewhat less formal, with extra takes being recorded with the audience participation. The icing on the proverbial Christmas cake, was that Holly also took the time to do a meet and greet after the show, signing autographs and taking photos with her fans here in Ottawa ! Definitely a high water mark of the Christmas season !

  • Holly Cole is the start of Christmas

    by TimF on 2012-12-22National Arts Centre / Centre national des Arts - OttawaRating: 5 out of 5

    A beautiful intimate concert. Holly Cole makes the audience feel like they are invited guests if not family. Her obvious joy in the music was infectious and the audience responded. A mix of old favorites and new songs with a sprinkling of holiday tunes delivered in a new way. A fantastic evening of great jazz by superb musicians.

  • Holly Cole performs smooth jazz

    by dollhaus on 2012-12-22National Arts Centre / Centre national des Arts - OttawaRating: 5 out of 5

    Holly Cole used to perform New Years Eve shows in Ottawa, then she took a break for a few years. She is back and still has the chops! Her vocals are strong, fresh, and smooth. Her song selection for this show included new material from her recent album, Night, and a few classics and Christmas songs. As usual she bantered a bit with the audience, in English and French. She featured a terrific saxophonist, Colleen Allen.
