Austrian genre-blending collective Soul de Vienne, led by composer and producer Roman Schleischitz, return with their luminous new holiday single, “The Magic of Christmas”. Rooted in tenderness and romance, the track captures the quiet beauty of winter nights when snow drifts outside, lights glow softly, and love turns the season into something unforgettable. At the center of the song lies a simple, timeless sentiment: “The magic of Christmas began with you”.
Musically, “The Magic of Christmas” reflects Soul de Vienne’s signature blend of soul, pop, jazz, and funk, brought to life with warm trumpet lines, shimmering synth bells, expressive guitar, elegant piano, and a rhythm section of bass and drums that keeps the track grounded in smooth, soulful motion. Led by a soulful, expressive vocal performance, the track carries an intimacy that feels personal and universal at the same time, drawing listeners into a moment suspended between nostalgia and warmth.
Drawing on the group’s Viennese roots and global influences, the single showcases the craftsmanship and storytelling that have defined Soul de Vienne since their founding. Known for sophisticated arrangements, live brass, and emotionally resonant songwriting, the collective steps into a more tender, festive light with this release, delivering a track that feels made for gatherings, quiet moments, and everything in between.
Speaking about the inspiration behind the song, Roman Schleischitz shares:
“For me, The Magic of Christmas is deeply personal — it carries the memory of some of the most beautiful moments in my life. It’s about those nights when the world outside is silent, snow is falling, and love transforms an ordinary evening into something eternal. Christmas has always been the season when I felt the warmth of closeness, of being truly seen and embraced. This song is my way of honoring that feeling: that the greatest gift is not under the tree, but beside you.”
“The Magic of Christmas” arrives just in time to become a new seasonal favorite — a soulful, glowing reminder that holiday magic often begins with the people we love most.
