Piano-Heaven's recommendation for April is 'Opus
Four- A Solo Piano Collection' by the very talented
Tim Neumark.
Tim's fourth CD features something for everyone,
from classical to contemporary, and moods from
meditative to energetic, and everything in-between!
Listen to samples by pressing PLAY (right)
Ludovico Einaudi's latest
album,
'In
a Time Lapse'
is a sensational piano
album, and one of my
favourite recordings. Highly
recommended!

Renowned musician and
producer Will Ackerman
(founder of Windham Hill
Records) has compiled and
produced a great new
collection of piano and
guitar pieces from
relatively new musicians on
the scene. The feel of the
music and indeed the
presentation of the album
will appeal greatly to those
who remember the Windham
Hill and Narada Labels
(especially the
'Collections') from the
1980s and 1990s.
A
high quality album, the two
stand-out tracks for me are
the majestic 'Bread of
Angels' by the undeniably
talented
Stanton Lanier,
and 'Anthem' composed by
Peter
Jennison.
The album is well worth
checking out. For more

Neil Patton's latest CD for
solo piano, Hammer & Wire,
is impressive. I
particularly like the track
you can listen to by
clicking the image below.
It's entitled 'Into the Arms
of God'. Each of the twelve
tracks tells its own story,
and Neil has devoted four
years in the making of this
recommended CD. Visit the
musician's website at
