We all know and love (for the most part) the popular classics, but there are also lots of phenomenal contemporary pieces that are right up there.
I’ve compiled a showcase of 16 beautiful contemporary piano solos by 16 different artists– uplifting, melancholic, blithe, a mix of beautiful piano music.
I’d hesitate to label these works further than ‘contemporary’– after all, what’s in a name?
There is an entire world of music out there that you probably haven’t seen half of. I’ll be compiling showcases for more great music soon– stay tuned!
