I hope no-one minds me bouncing this old thread, It's just that I stumbled across this chap tonight and have been very impressed.

Thanks for bouncing this Buzzer. These beautiful pieces provide a very welcome & intimate sanctury from all the cut & thrust of Albion stuff n nonsensical jabber. Here's my musical contribution c/o the genius that is/was Arvo Pärt:-

Keep bouncing, you seem to have very good taste..

Okay- Ludo, check, Richter, check, Olafur, check, Frahm, check..

Surprised this guy hasn't been posted. This track lifts me- slow start but really builds..

I give you Johann Johannsson and "Melodia (Guidelines for a Space Propulsion Device)" from his splendid album "Fordlandia". (His other albums, unfortunately, aren't that great (in my opinion))

Is that the Johan Johannson that has done the Miner's Hymns album? If so then he is a genius. One of my albums of the year. Thanks for posting.

It's not piano but it is very beautiful. From the Thee Silver Mt Zion/Godspeed band members

Moving away from classical/piano maybe, but Eluvium (aka Matthew Cooper) is a genius of the ambient/post-rock scene.

Checked and seems there's no Harold Budd on here, so.....Very dreamy, hence the album title, but ideal for this time of night I reckon.

I think I must have heard every track off of Virginia Astley's classic - Gardens Where We Feel Secure - album on Late Junction over the years yet never got around to actually buying it for myself. Oh well, here's a piece off of it anyway :

Rachel's always going to be a good call :thumbsup: Never heard the piece you put up though, so thanks.

Love this off of the - Music for Egon Schiele - album.
