Music reviews of The Parlour Grand: Piano Favorites from a Bygone Era
Music Review: Really good music, well-played
Rating: 5 Stars
My favorite piano album of this sort remains Music Of A Bygone Era by pianist Frank Glazer (ASIN: B000FO4494), however this is almost as good and includes many more pieces than Glazer's CD (there's also a volume 2 with even more pieces). I originally bought this because I had been searching for a good recording of Narcissus. I first bought the Narcissus MP3 from Amazon, then later bought the entire CD.
I grew up in the 50's and this is the sort of music my mother played on our piano (I'm still looking for a recording of Majesty of the Deep). Silverman exhibits great affection and appreciation of the material and plays it with great feeling and expressiveness, albeit not quite as exquisitely as Glazer.
Highly recommended!

Description of The Parlour Grand: Piano Favorites from a Bygone Era
The music features piano favorites from the salon repertoire, including Beethoven's Für Elise and Frédéric Chopin's Valse in C Sharp Minor.These wonderful CDs evoke fond memories of simpler times, and evenings around the piano with family and friends.
Performed by renowned pianist Robert Silverman.
"One could only marvel at a performance of such thorough conviction. Surely he is one of the country's finest pianists." -Toronto Star
"Silverman is a pianist's pianist, unquestionably in the league of today's superstars". -Post Intelligencer, Seattle
"Robert Silverman is a master. Everything which he plays appears to be completely natural in the context of the performance. It is as though the composer speaks directly through the performer." -South China Morning Post, Hong Kong
