Serge Robinson - ten albums
There are a lot of prolific musicians hanging around the internet. Yet any artist who puts out over a hundred and forty full length albums of solo piano improvisations has to be stretching the boundaries of the meaning of “obsessional”. Fortunately, Serge Robinson has a soothing touch on the keyboard and enough virtuosity and imagination to pull it off. To be honest, I did not listen to all 147 albums, a task that is certainly beyond the call of duty. However, I listened enough to know that any of the albums will give you a hour of deep and thoughtful music, reminiscent of Keith Jarrett’s own improvisatory excursions yet mindful of classical and impressionistic influence such as Satie and Faure.
So how do I decide which of the 147 albums to feature? Randomly, of course. Here are ten albums, chosen by random yet actually listened to, that will be a nice starting point. Each album has two thirty minute improvisations. As stated, they are jazz in style yet more suited to a lazy classical mood. Just pick one and enjoy!
All albums are in VBR MP3 and available thorugh the Jamendo website. You can find a full listing of the albums on this page.
