Music reviews of Solid Colors: Piano Solos (Repackaged)
Music Review: Solid!
Rating: 5 Stars
This is by far my favorite album by Liz Story and by any solo pianist if I'd have to choose. This album and her second "Unaccountable Effect" have a pleasant recording quality and piano sound that isn't present in any of her later projects. But they are all still worth owning because of the artistic and composition value. I think the engineer Steven Miller had something to do with the awesome sound on these two... Maybe it was the piano... I don't know. Liz also contributed an arrangement of "Greensleeves" on the 1985 original "Winter Solstice" compilation that Windham Hill released and Steven Miller did the engineering on that track as well. In fact, that was the first song I heard from Liz and was so moved by the mood and atmosphere I went out and bought her entire catalog at the time! I am a solo pianist myself and have released two albums of works (available here at amazon.com under the artist name, "isadar") and my latest CD includes a cover version of her song "Wedding Rain" the opening cut from this album. I tried emulating the environment of this album and I think I came near the mark. In any case, you will not regret buying this album if you have a love for piano. Just be aware that if you are looking for schmaltzy romantic piano music this may NOT be the CD for you. Liz's music is very unique. When she plays, her phrasing is like many small "hic-ups" - it's very light, flowing and very unusual. Beautiful! This album will be with me forever. The best track on this masterpiece is cut #3. "Without You"
