UWE GRONAU ALBUM HAS SOME SOLO MUSIC AS WELL AS SOME ENSEMBLE TUNES

Uwe Gronau - FLIGHT 14 - TIMERIDER MUSIC

Treat yourself to some great new music. How about the new CD (FLIGHT 14) by German multi-keyboardist UWE GRONAU (pronounced ooo-vuh grow-now).

The recording is balanced between softer material (solo piano numbers and tunes with spacey or sparse arrangements) and ensemble-sounding compositions (featuring either percussion, a snapping snare drum or a full drum kit sound). The CD includes beautiful melodies (Lend Me Your Heart, The Cleaning) and both slow, sparse solo piano (Elegy) and pretty solo piano played either fairly rapidly (Magic Tree - Part 2) or forcefully (Father, I Miss You). There also is plenty of synth and organ on the CD.

It is easy to understand that Gronau was influenced by Brian Auger, Keith Emerson, Weather Report, Keith Jarrett, Peter Gabriel and Dream Theater (you hear bits and pieces of those styles on FLIGHT 14). Using varied inspiration and a bunch of different keyboards, Gronau has crafted another exceptional recording, one well worth seeking out.
