Hallmark Presents Making Spirits Bright - Diana Ross
Album snapshot: Making Spirits Bright is a 1994 Hallmark-exclusive holiday CD featuring Diana Ross out front with The Modern Jazz Quartet, The King’s Singers, and the London Symphony Orchestra, blending sacred songs, ballads, and orchestral arrangements into a polished seasonal listen.
Originally sold only through Hallmark stores, this release quietly became a deep-cut favorite for Diana Ross fans, thanks to new recordings that don’t simply recycle material from her other Christmas projects. It plays like a curated holiday special on disc, with Ross-led tracks interwoven with jazz, vocal, and instrumental performances that keep the whole album flowing as a single winter program.
