With so many piano music composers out there, I'm constantly on the look out for someone I may not know. I would appreciate it very much if people could post their own favourites on this thread...perhaps pieces they know by well known composers, could be any era, that perhaps are underrated or unknown, or contemporary composers others may not know. I am particularly interested in the minimalist/new age genre, so George Winston, Ilya Beshevli, Yann Tierson, and of course Einaudi fall into that category. From the 19th-20th Centuries Eric Satie is a particular favourite, and further back Beethoven, Chopin and Schubert, but really anything that has the quality to tug at the heart strings.
Please air your thoughts and particular favourites, it'd be great to see what people like and hopefully to discover new music from others. Thank you.
