Elegant improvised piano solo with lush melody. From the Mountain Images CD, describing the beauty of Alpine Daisies found in the Colorado Rockies.

Chopin Nocturne, Chopin, Nocturne, Pat Holmberg, piano music, acoustic piano music, romantic period piano music,, Instrumental, Classical, Romantic, Frederic Chopin
Hauntingly familiar, this piano piece has an unforgettable melody, and ranges in mood from whimsical and delicate to moving, lush and full in the style of the romantic period at its most wonderful. In ABA form, the 2 "A" parts are the calm ones, while the middle "B" part is fuller and a bit faster. Instrumental, Classical, Romantic, Claude Debussy
This is one of the best known and loved Christian hymns - probably because of the message of hope that its lyrics convey. This is an instrumental - piano - version. It is played using some rich harmonic structures which elevate it beyond the usual. Instrumental, Spiritual, Christian Hymns

A popular two-step tune from the early 20th century, played here in a "stride" piano style. Has a good steady beat, and is great for singing along or dancing if you want to. Full of nostalgia from anyone born before 1935. Instrumental, Jazz, Swing Stride
This acoustic piano track actually is reminiscent of Bach's C Major Prelude from Book 1 of the Well-Tempered Clavier.

Instrumental, Classical, Romantic, Robert Schumann
Elegant and tender piano solo. A soft, simple rendering of this iconic and religious Christmas carol. Roaring fireplace, wrapping presents, hanging mistletoe, kids playing, carving the turkey, passing the cranberry sauce. Holiday traditional music at its finest. Happy families and kids together. Instrumental, Christmas, Christmas Piano
This is an energetic piece in 9/8 time. In typical Bach fashion, it is full of sequences and patterns which repeat on different notes and in different registers, sometimes truncated and sometimes elongated. Instrumental, Classical, Baroque, Johann Sebastian Bach
Bach has been referred to by more than one musician as being the first jazz musician. Some of his melodic lines are similar to jazz riffs, and there is almost always a vibrant, steady beat. Much of his music is great for people who run and jog - it's upbeat and strongly rhythmic. Instrumental, Classical, Baroque, Johann Sebastian Bach
Typical of Baroque piano music, this has a lot of notes and a lot of counterpoint. It is fast, upbeat, cheerful, and actually is toe-tapping music. It is played cleanly and with energy. Instrumental, Classical, Baroque, Johann Sebastian Bach
Music from the Baroque period has vibrant energy, as well as interesting complexity going on under the top line. This is one of those. The challenge of a performer is to make decisions about which notes to bring to the fore, and which to let recede a bit. This is well played, with attention to that. Instrumental, Classical, Baroque, Johann Sebastian Bach
Minuets were a traditional part of the classic Baroque dance suites - often following the slower Sarabande. In 3/4 time and moderate tempo, minuets are
stately and elegant, with a definite rhythmic pulse. There were thousands written during the Baroque period - Bach's are usually recognizable. Instrumental, Classical, Baroque, Johann Sebastian Bach
An upbeat, spirited dance in 6/8 time - the form is said to have originated in Brittany. It was a common ingredient of the classic Baroque dance suites. It is energetic, but has an elegance that you will enjoy. Instrumental, Classical, Baroque, Johann Sebastian Bach
For solo acoustic piano, this is an upbeat, energetic piece typical of the Baroque period. Fairly fast with lots of notes, but played in a manner so that the basic structure is clearly defined. Preambulum is Latin for Prelude, and in this case it is the opening movement for this Baroque dance suite. Instrumental, Classical, Baroque, Johann Sebastian Bach
This was a favorite standard of jazz musicians in the 30's and 40's-and to this day with groups who still play tunes from that era. It was used for sing-alongs in those days before TV when people would gather around an upright piano in someone's living room and sing for entertainment in the evenings, Instrumental, Americana, Americana
Fun Mid tempo syncopated Ragtime piano solo. Nostalgia, memories of earlier eras, Golden Oldies, American favorites, cultural lore. Turn of the century films about New Orleans or St. Louis, the birthplace of Ragtime. Robert Redford's 1973 film The Sting revived the popularity of Ragtime. Instrumental, Jazz, Swing Stride
Beautiful piano solo with strong jazz influences in the harmonies and rhythms. Strong melody in the Classic "theme and variations" form. From one variation to another the mood and tempo changes -- the constant is the harmonic structure. Instrumental, Classical, 21st Century
This hymn, similar to many of the great hymns of the church, was written in the 18th century - 1792 to be exact. The melody was written by Oliver Holden. Light, easy to add words, sing along, strong melodic line. Church on Sunday, traditional love, family dinners and reunions. Uplifting to the max! Instrumental, Spiritual, Christian Hymns
Fur Elise is one of the most well-known of all of Beethoven's piano compositions. It is a beloved melody by one of the world's best composers of memorable melodies.

Next to Fur Elise, this is probably the most well known piano piece that Beethoven wrote. You will recognize the familiar melody with moving notes underneath that continue throughout. Masterfully played here. Instrumental, Classical, Classical, Ludwig van Beethoven
Melodic and with warmth, this track exudes a calm strength - unhurried and confident. There is a more tumultuous part in the middle, and then it sinks back into the same quiet feeling of the beginning. Instrumental, Classical, Classical, Ludwig van Beethoven
This is a short medium tempo ragtime piece, more of a 'ragtime miniature', but is energetic and moving, as the title would indicate. With this and other ragtime piano pieces, it is impossible to listen to them and be in a depressed state - they are truly mood uplifters. Instrumental, Jazz, Ragtime
Chopin, piano music, acoustic piano music, romantic piano music, 19th century piano music, 'harp' etude, etude, Instrumental, Classical, Romantic, Frederic Chopin
This is a typical first movement of a classical sonatina.... intermediate level..... not very long. It's a cheerful piece - uncomplicated. Instrumental, Classical, Classical
Chopin composed primarily for the piano, and we have him to thank for some of the most memorable melodies ever written. Dubbed the "poet of the piano", he used those 88 keys in ways that were different than anything done before. This is a short piece; very simple and graceful. Instrumental, Classical, Romantic, Frederic Chopin
A piano piece with moving, left hand melody. Although it is in the minor mode, it does not have a dark, melancholy mood.....it's just beautiful music with rich harmonies, skillfully written and played, and fairly short. Instrumental, Classical, Romantic, Frederic Chopin
An acoustic piano piece here which in typical Chopin fashion has a distinct melody. This track is short, and being in the minor mode, has a melancholy feel. It is heavy and dark, though with a few lovely, brighter moments. Instrumental, Classical, Romantic, Frederic Chopin
An acoustic piano piece with a simple melody on top and descending chromatic chord progressions below. It is a short piece, but in that short time there is a definite surging to the dramatic, high point which then gradually lets down to a quiet close. Instrumental, Classical, Romantic, Frederic Chopin
This is the slow movement of this Sonatina. It is melodic, quite delicate at times, and has a distinct warmth about it. Instrumental, Classical, Classical
This piece is quick and energetic. It has basically a 'drone' bass (similar to a musette in that way) upon which sits a cheerful upbeat melody. It is played here on acoustic piano, rather than on the harpsichord, for which it was originally written. Instrumental, Classical, Baroque
A ragtime piano piece about which one listener recently said: “First time I am hearing "Davidson Mesa Looking West", smooth, skillful and classy. Puts me in a happy mood.” This is definitely a fun, cheerful, toe-tapping track. Instrumental, Jazz, Swing Stride
This is an acoustic piano improvisation on an old favorite and familiar hymn tune. You will enjoy the imaginative playing. Instrumental, Spiritual, Christian Hymns
This acoustic piano piece has one of those few beloved melodies which stand out from all the others in history. If I were to use numbers, I would rate the main melody in this piece as one of the top 10 of the last 500 years. It's very familiar and well loved. Instrumental, Classical, 20th Century, George Gershwin
