But it was 1962’s Jazz Impressions Of Black Orpheus that made Guaraldi a household name. A frequent collaborator of vibraphonist Cal Tjader, Guaraldi had broken out on his own just a few years prior, releasing several records as a leader.

In the early ’60s, Bay Area jazz pianist Vince Guaraldi was a fast-rising star. This book-style box set also includes new liner notes from Peanuts historian, Derrick Bang. The Blu-ray disc includes hi-resolution audio of the new mix as well as a Dolby Atmos mix. They may not be reproduced by any means in any form.In addition to disc one of Vince Guaraldi Trio’s A Charlie Brown Christmas, discs two through four offer a trove of unheard outtakes from five recording sessions that place listeners in the studio as the musicians work through their arrangements.
