Sad Piano (English, Sheet music, unknown)

Sad Piano features 13 captivating pieces for solo piano by dynamic Australian composer Matthew Hindson. Each piece sits within the ever popular listening trend of "sad piano music" on streaming platforms and whilst sad and melancholic in mood, has the paradoxical effect of making the player feel comforted and uplifted. Suitable for intermediate to advanced level pianists. "I started this collection during the Covid-19 lockdown, when I felt an intense need to write music that was personal and overtly emotional. Each Sad Piano piece explores a different emotion or frame of mind: from inner fury to love and sentimentality to the resilience many of us needed to get through lockdown." Matthew Hindson ...a lovely collection of pieces for a sensitive, thoughtful pianist which, although they pose rhythmic challenges, are largely slow and gentle. I hope they become deservedly popular. Pearl Woodward, Piano Professional Magazine, Autumn 2024 Sad Piano offers a wealth of beautifully conceived and emotionally intelligent music that succeeds in rising far above most of the ambient piano music in the "new classical" genre. These deeply rewarding pieces seem guaranteed to speak abundantly to players and audiences alike...These are compositions of enduring value, and the whole album is a balm to the soul.
