Solo piano III

Description

The brilliant Chilly Gonzales unveils the final opus of his Solo Piano trilogy. The Canadian pianist and entertainer Chilly Gonzales, Grammy Award winner, is well known for his intimate approach to the piano through the albums Solo Piano and Solo Piano II as well as for his sense of showmanship and his collaborations with internationally renowned artists (Daft Punk, Feist, Jarvis Cocker, Drake, etc.). "Gonzo," as his entourage calls him, aims to be a man of his time, approaching the piano with a classical and jazz background but with the attitude of a rapper. Solo Piano III completes the trilogy of Solo Piano albums. And like its predecessors, the album ends on a happy ending in C major, but the journey is punctuated by more dissonances, tension, and ambiguity. The musical purity of Solo Piano III is not an antidote to our time; it reflects all the beauty and ugliness that surrounds us. FOR THOSE WHO LOVE Brad Mehldau, Agnes Obel, Ólafur Arnalds, Nils Frahm
