My contribution to Piano Day 2023 could not make it in time, because I needed longer to catch up with releases (in fact, I’m still lagging one year behind at this point). The result, “Mittagsgold” (Gazania), has a staggering 31 pieces, though, which are mostly piano-led, but this new personal favorite Planetarium set also contains some cinematic ambient and light post-rock tracks ringing in the spring season. Hopefully, you’re as excited as I am about this mix!
