Piano Solos

[DonSolare]

I am curious to know if there are here a few (or tons) of fans of piano music in the broadest possible sense:

- hard core classical music like Mozart, Haydn, Schubert

- contemporary classical like Debussy or Satie

- hard core avantgarde like Schönberg or Stockhausen

- so-called modern / minimal piano light ballades like Einaudi, Nyman, Glass

- Pop instrumentals (for piano...)

- Latin (salsa, tango, bossa nova...)

or any other category I am forgetting now

For instance, is there any K-pop for solo piano?

[Abody05]

I am a big fan of

• Mozart and my favorite music of his is Turkish March
• Beethoven and the favorite piano solo is fur Elise

Hi,

oh there's so much to discover....

I think the pianoworks by Simeon ten Holt are wonderful, especially 'Canto Ostinato'

I really like the piano etudes of Philip Glass, played by Maki Namekawa

spotify:album:7fAV0q7la4SLQ3Z9jXbA0n

Most of the time I listen to classical composers. I've made a quiet playlist (Janacek, Scarlatti, Alkan, Poulenc, Shostakovich) and a more vivid swinging list (with for example Granados, de Falla, Lecuona, Milhaud)

Frank Ocean's Blonde (2016) is a masterful album in contemporary R&B. After it debuted, a solo piano version of every song was released, under the album Piano Tribute to Frank Ocean by an unknown artist (although some believe it to be Ocean himself). I do not casually listen to piano melodies, but I will always make an exception for this cover album.

I can suggest that one:

Hi, 

My playlist dark sad piano is now slowly gaining some followers. Not much 39 but every week a few people join. I don't mind adding a song from a pianist over here. If it's a sad or really dark song that is. That's the theme. 

Greetings Roberto

[klaudiapianist]

Hello Roberto!

I'm a huge fan of classical piano music, modern and classic/romantic period.

I started learning the piano at 6yrs of age and have been playing for 16 years non-stop!

My personal favourites of the classical and romantic eras are Chopin and Mozart. 

I'm a big fan of Valentin Silvestrov and his Bagatelle no. 1

I'm a very huge fan of Ludovico Einaudi and Giovanni Allevi and have learnt may pieces of theirs over the years.

In recent years, I have started composing myself. Here's a sample.

Let me know what you think!

[howie535]

Please consider adding my album to your playlist! I followed!

Thanks.

Now that you've been given all the great well-known pieces, try Jean-Philippe Collard Neven. He does contemorary classical. His latest album is with an oud player, Nasser Houari. It's very moody and worth a listen.
