Peter Breiner is one of the world's most recorded musicians, with acclaimed releases such as Beatles Go Baroque (Naxos 8.555010), accounting for millions of albums sold. An exceptional composer/ arranger and an accomplished pianist, Breiner is equally at home in almost every genre of music. His origins in Slovakia and his experience in composing for films and for all kinds of audiences has resulted in a personal style that is both accessible and deeply touching. The tranquil and serene pieces for Caressing Your Soul meld melodic substance with musical expression to provide solace, relief and peace of mind in an oasis of calming music.
These superb recordings were made in February 2020 at the Wyastone Concert Hall in Monmouth, UK - a proven ideal location for piano. Breiner has since stated, 'Little did we know when we decided to go ahead with this project how necessary and important this kind of music would suddenly become after the pandemic of 2020 hit the planet. People in general, not only music lovers, try to find some solace, relief and peace of mind in an oasis of calming music, and I have tried my best to provide it. I hope that these works will provide moments of peace for all who listen.'
