Evan Wish-Forget-Me-Not, Blue Review

Keith H.
Artist: Evan Wish
Title: Forget-Me-Not, Blue
Genre: New Age-Contemporary
Label: Wish 4/4 Music

Wish is an accomplished concert pianist and obviously well versed in the studio. This is a fine effort punctuated by using quotes from Nobel Prize winners such Gandhi, Mother Theresa and others. The narrations are provided in "What Will Man's Legacy Be?".

The piano playing is rooted in classical and transformed into contemporary new age arrangements courtesy of Mr. Wish and some perfectly placed violins. It always seemed right while listening so it is apparent that the artist knew exactly what he was doing prior to heading into the studio to realize his vision.

The thing about solo piano is that although it is simplistic in nature, it does offer beautiful tones and rolling rhythms that engage your senses. The richness of the compositions by Wish is a blessing to the ears. The message he conveys in his music is one of peace and harmony and then he prolifically brings that home to the heart with words that carry the weight of the world on its shoulders. I thought that was a very original touch. Even though it was in one track it was significant enough that it sets this recording apart from others of the same genre.

Forget-Me-Not, Blue is a superb rendering of solo piano work that can be listened to anywhere at any time. One does not have to be in any particular mood to appreciate its elegance and the way each song easily paints a picture in your mind's eye.

This is highly recommended for those that listen to instrumental music with the piano as the featured instrument and anyone in need of stress relief.

5/5 Stars
