Product Description The Naked Piano, Vol. II by Gary Girouard Review Pianist/Composer Gary Girouard has done it again. The latest in a series, 'Naked Piano 2' continues the supreme elegance of where its predecessor 'Naked Piano 1', left off. Again recorded live using a Steinway D, in the world famous Steinhart Hall, Naked Piano 2 gives the audience a warm, emotionally inspired, 14-track epic; where notes dangle from rich mahogany, and ivory keys lift the soul to beautiful unimaginable places. Girouards' compositions on Naked Piano 2 have his listeners think, feel, and ponder life's little quirks and wonders. His melodies and high to low note transitions, entices the ears to feel each songs message with a delicate balance of wisdom and play. I can hardly wait for Naked Piano 3 to be released; I'll be looking forward to hearing it at the Grammy's in the background to the latest movie nominee. --Boston Live

Great Music
I came across The Naked Piano by accident. It is wonderful music. Just right...not too much...not too little. My wife even listens to it while she works out.

The Perfect Panacea For Today's World
While there's no shortage of "new age" solo piano, there's something about Girouard's music that's hard to describe (i'm still going to try). It's intelligent without being overwhelming; substantive without being heavy-handed. Every gentle composition has a beautiful, thoughtful arc to it. I mention this because so many pieces in this genre are like cotton candy for the mind. They start; they're over and you never left, and you hardly notice.These compositions are at once new yet comfortably familiar and stand extremely well to multiple listenings. There's tenderness and great beauty in every song -- and work together like a perfect massage... relaxing, stimulating and thoroughly enjoyable.He has two albums as well as a Christmas edition. They are all equally brilliant in their concept and execution. Enjoy. He's the most famous pianist you haven't heard of -- YET!
