Imaginary Piano
by Gary Paul Bryant —
There is nothing make-believe about the piano playing on this album, which employs a fusion of acoustic and electronic piano arrangements that takes listeners on an upbeat journey to musical wonderlands adorned with melodies and harmonies that touch the heart and awaken the soul.
The keys resonate throughout the high-energy collection of jazz influenced pieces combined with a hint of classical elegance and a touch of new age grace.
Adept at many styles, Bryant fuses his three great loves — jazz, New Orleans boogie woogie and romantic, classical ballads — into a new, cohesive sound that is as unique as his influences.
