The pianist and composer known as Wayne
Jones has released his newest collection of original songs, the aptly
titled “Relaxing Piano Vol. 1.” The album is comprised of 11
tracks for a total listening time of nearly an hour, making for a
round treatment of the Jones sound and feel, as well as a
comprehensive introduction to this master of songwriting for piano. A
cool, natural record with warmth and goodwill flowing through it like
a mountain stream, “Relaxing Piano Vol. 1” is a perfect album and
a true work of the finest art.
“Relaxing Piano Vol 1” transforms a
room instantly. Jones' presence at his keys is implied, rather than
felt, as the sonorousness of his playing fills the air like wafts of
warm, fresh air. His compositions are intuitive, earnest, unassuming,
humble, and bear a simplicity that bespeaks great taste. They
exemplify the principle noted by Antoine de Saint-Exupery when he
wrote, “A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there
is nothing left to add, but when
there is nothing left to take away.” Jones never
overplays, nor aims at the abstract, nor lapses into predictability.
His pieces are plainly pretty and overtly wonderful, and boast an
exceptionally high quality that places his gorgeous record far, far
above anything the classiest wine bar is likely to have playing on
the stereo.
Speaking candidly of his artistic goals
for “Relaxing Piano Vol. 1,” Jones writes, “I
hope that when someone listens to this album they might find a little
relief from the stress of this busy world in which we all work and
play, and that the music can help them connect with that part of us
that gets pushed aside when we forget to take time and breathe.”

Jones' soothing and subtly arresting record, “Relaxing Piano Vol.
1,” is available online everywhere, with which publication the
quality of life on planet Earth has come up a notch. Why be left out?
