Not just piano but vocals plus piano recommendations; Stacy Kent comes to mind. Any of her collections except perhaps her latest "The Boy Next Door" which I find is leaning towards pop. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/stores/artist/glance/-/64911/ref=pd_ap_gut/104-7934004-0260709 Also try her hubby's (Jim Tomlinson) release of "Brazilian Sketches". His sax playing is addictive plus Stacey apppearing in some of the tracks. A marriage made in heaven, I mean the voice & the sax playing too :-). http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/search-handle-url/index=music-artist&field-artist=Jim%20Tomlinson/104-7934004-0260709 I recently discovered Dave's True Story "Nature" which is pretty relaxing as well. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/stores/artist/glance/-/84024/ref=pd_ap_sr/104-7934004-0260709 |
Ill second those thoughts on Peter Erskine and of course Bill Evans "Waltz for Debby".Someone else that may be of iterest to you is a gentleman by the "naim" of Laurence Hobgood, Playing since the age of six at a prepatory school in Dallas TX. Has a strong background in classical study which comes through in his improvisational skills. A very well educated pianist ,his college years spent at U.of IL. in Champaign/Urbana,has performed with other artists such as Paul Wertico and Kurt Elling among many others.You can find him on the "NAIM"record lable ,. This artists music is also found on the Blue Note lable titled "Close Your Eyes' with which he produced and co-arranged along with Paul Wertico and Kurt Elling this was nominated for a grammy. Someone else worth seeking out IMHO.Regards/Tim... |
