Known primarily throughout America as a visionary pianist and in-demand sideman, D. Richard Lewis also performs on trumpet, vocals and a variety of keyboards. What characterizes this new recording is an essentially pure approach to melody, especially impressive considering the lavish orchestral and ensemble settings arranged for individual tracks. Each note is well-articulated; every phrase precisely elegant yet simultaneously warm, resonant and incredibly expressive. Lewis’ compositional style is about control and perception: being able to feel an emotion very deeply, but having the power to deal with such feelings in a productive way. This crossover classical-New Age music will appeal to anyone who has been touched by the power of Love.
