Piano Music

Piano music, as a genre, has waltzed its way into our hearts since the instrument's invention in the early 18th century, becoming the soundtrack to both genteel parlours and the odd pub singalong. Characterised by its wide range of expression, it can evoke everything from melancholic daydreams to the frantic tapping of toes at a lively jig; essentially, if it sounds good on a well-tuned piano, it's in the running. Surprisingly versatile, this genre has given rise to everything from classical sonatas to pop ballads, proving that the piano can be as much a drama queen as it is a reliable companion for a quiet evening in.
