It's Fun to Play the Piano ... Please Pass It On!
So I've been listening to nothing but piano music for months now, and I've been loving it. I'm starting to run my list of music dry though.
I listen to classical every once in a while, but mostly I love to listen to the more new-age style of playing. I've been mostly listening to David Nevue, Ludovico Einaudi, and Yiruma. On top of that, I spend a lot of time just surfing Youtube, trying to find more original compositions to listen to.
I'm starting to get into composing my own music, and only have a little over a year under my belt, so I'm just trying to listen to more and more music, as it's helped me a ton lately.
I'm a huge fan of Nevue and Einaudi, too. Here are some of the other composers for piano I also really like:
Ralph Zurmuhle Josh Winiberg Giovanni Bomoll David Lanz Dax Johnson Alessandra Celletti George Winston Jon Schmidt/The Piano Guys Robin Meloy Goldsby Wim Mertens Yann Tiersen Stephan Moccio Elijah Brossenbroek The O'Neill Brothers Stanton Lanier
I don't listen to New Age, but have you listened to piano jazz? It is rich and rewarding and there is a lot of great stuff out there: Bill Evans, Dave Brubeck, McCoy Tyner, Teddy Wilson, Art Tatum, Keith Jarrett, and lots, lots more. I am sure some of the music will speak to you.
