            The music of the season is an essential element of the holidays. Music shares the joy of the birth of Jesus, celebrates rich traditions from around the world, and promotes peace on earth! Nothing stirs the emotions of the Christmas season like its music!

            Marion Gwizdala is a professional entertainer who performs under the stage name Marion & Martin. (He plays a martin guitar.) Marion is also the president of the East Hillsborough Chapter of the National Federation of the Blind of Florida and the president of the national Association of guide dog Users. 

            Marion's music is simple, yet complex. Its simplicity lies in the combination of his strong tenor voice with the acoustic sounds of his martin guitar. The messages in his music deal with the complexities of social responsibility. More information about Marion & martin can be found by visiting his web site at

http://www.marionandmartin.com

There you will find his biography, some of the articles written about him, and audio samples of the music he performs. 

Marion has recorded a mini album of Christmas songs entitled "an Acoustic Christmas". This collection of eight songs was recorded as single takes with very few enhancements. What you will hear on this recording is what it would sound like if Marion were performing in your living room for you.

            Marion will be selling "An Acoustic Christmas" for the joint benefit of the East Hillsborough Chapter and the national Association of Guide Dog Users. He is offering other NFB Chapters, Divisions, and Affiliates the opportunity to raise much needed funds through the sale of this holiday CD by purchasing it at a special pre-production price of $3.00/each (plus shipping and handling) for a minimum quantity of twenty-five albums. The approximate S&H for twenty-five albums is $3.00. The suggested selling price for this mini album is $5.00. This offer is only valid until November 26, so act now! 

            For more information about "an Acoustic Christmas", including estimated shipping dates and payment options, you may contact Marion by email to
