Free Solo Piano

solo pianoFree Solo Piano is a site well worth checking out for all piano music fans.

Webmaster Chuck Brown defines the style of piano it represents as containing “elements of pop, jazz and classical music to form a style also been termed “new age”. Artists such as Yanni, George Winston and Jim Brickman have helped define the genre and spread its popularity. Strong melodies, a tender touch and a soothing spirit are hallmarks of this music.”

I think that goes some way to definining my music as well, tho I feel whilst some of my music is very mellow, it has more passion, purpose and drama than the new age tag implies.

Anyway, well worth checking out and they are offering to tracks from my albun as a free download, so if you dont have my album yet, grab em and see what you think! (filed under B).
