Peaceful Piano Playlist

Faber are to be loudly applauded for their vision and generosity in putting this collection together.The Peaceful Piano Playlist without doubt includes an enterprising and impressive range of composers and music, with plenty to appeal to those players who stream similar playlists online and are drawn to this musical genre.In practice, I should think that even a fairly advanced player would take quite a while to work their way through all 35 pieces included here; the book represents superb value for money and is undoubtedly one that players will want to keep returning to.To summarise, Faber Music have brilliantly encapsulated a very current musical zeitgeist with this collection, and it deserves to simply fly off the shelves!www.pianodao.com, June 2019
