钢琴大家Jim Brickman - Picture This[1997]

QUOTE:

Pianist Jim Brickman would like you to picture a world that is prettier, more contented, and more emotionally in-tune than the world you probably see through your windshield each day. It may be just wishful thinking, but Brickman's music indulges in the dream anyway, and those inclined to share in the momentary journey will find it is a lovely, often romantic ride. The Cleveland-born pianist understands his strengths and sticks close to the white keys in this very inviting 13-track collection. Brickman specializes in crafting pop-influenced melodies that, to his credit, aim for the heartstrings through intelligence and subdued elegance rather than schmaltz. The album's most circulated cut is its lone vocal selection, the soft-pop hit "Valentine," sung by Martina McBride, but all 12 instrumentals are individual jewels of understated beauty. "Secret Love," for example, opens with sparkling, hopeful passages, followed by the hesitancy and uncertainty of a muted cello, resolved by a flood of expressive flourishes that beautifully convey pent-up romantic release. Even his reworking of "Frère Jacques" suggests a thoughtfulness that can make listeners rethink the tune themselves. A great choice for clear-eyed romantics.

TRACKLIST

1. Dream Come True
2. Sun, Moon & Stars
3. Sound Of Your Voice
4. Picture This
5. Edgewater
6. You Never Know

钢琴大家Jim Brickman -- Love Songs and Lullabies[2002]

QUOTE:

Created, it would seem, as a special-occasion soundtrack for love-struck dreamers, the eighth career recording from Jim Brickman is a rewarding collection of eight instrumentals and four vocal tracks--one that will especially be appreciated by the pianist's longer-term fans. Beyond the sentimental excess of a couple of vocal tracks, the disc's affecting piano solos (most with minimal or no accompaniment) compare favorably with works found on Brickman's esteemed early-career releases, No Words, By Heart, and Picture This. At his best, Brickman composes touching, mentally engaging sonic essays that articulate the fragility and deeper complexities of interpersonal relations. He's working at a high level throughout Love Songs and Lullabies, shading his solo compositions with moods that shift subtly from reverence to romance to (as on the gems "Night Prayer" and "Safe and Sound") appreciative contemplation. On "Little Stars," Brickman revisits "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" (first explored on By Heart), intertwines it with "Rock-a-Bye Baby," and elevates the simple melodies into something regally refined. Noteworthy vocal tracks include a tender interpretation of 1 Corinthians 13 ("Love Never Fails," with Canadian vocalist Amy Sky) and "You," a gently upbeat charmer sung beautifully by Ally McBeal alumna Jane Krakowski (Elaine). Downside: The disc, released less than a year after Simple Things, has a run time of less than 38 minutes. Upside: Brickman's splendid piano solos more than compensate.

TRACKLIST

1. Prelude (Brickman) - 1:39
2. Little Stars (Brickman) - 2:46
3. Love Never Fails performed by Brickman / Amy Sky - 3:44
4. Shades of White (Brickman) - 3:00
5. Above the Clouds (Brickman) - 2:36
6. Night Prayer (Brickman) - 2:55
7. I See the Moon (Brickman/Traditional) - 2:58
8. Dreamland (Brickman) - 2:37
9. Safe and Sound (Brickman) - 3:26
10. Beautiful (As You) performed by Brickman / All 4 One - 4:07
11. Course of Love {From The Guiding Light -... (Brickman/Stewert) - 3:37
12. You performed by Brickman / Jane Krakowski - 4:08

Jim Brickman - Visions Of Love[1998]

QUOTE:

Brickman produced this compilation, which brings on board such luminaries as Anne Cochran, Michelle Wright, Janis Ian, Stephen Bishop, and of course Brickman himself. Essentially a collection of ballads on the title subject, Visions of Love doesn't have much variety, though Peabo Bryson's singing on "My Heart Belongs to You" does stand out. Pop-oriented and lyrically composed, the music relies on emotional resonance, which it achieves.

TRACKLIST

1 That's What I'm Here For / David Grow 4:08
2 After All These Years / Anne Cochran 4:08
3 One Heart, One Love / Phil Perry 4:17
4 Still in Love / Larry Stewart 3:54
5 Partners in Crime / Dave Koz 3:01
6 Your Love / Michelle Wright 3:45
7 Like Love / Phillip Ingram 3:45
8 Getting over You / Janis Ian 4:19
9 Shower the People / Amanda Upchurch 4:03
10 The Gift / Collin Raye 3:40
11 My Heart Belongs to You / Peabo Bryson 4:27
12 We Live for Love / Stephen Bishop 4:03

Jim Brickman - No Words [1994]

QUOTE:

Pianist Jim Brickman is an artist who seems to have discovered a permanent opening to his own deep well of emotional cognizance. Since the release of this debut recording in 1994, he has repeatedly tapped into that well to deliver some of the most satisfying piano-based recordings of the 1990s. No Words is purely solo piano, and as such it conveys a slightly more formal tone than his subsequent albums, which progressively reveal a more overtly romantic, pop-inclined sense of melody and structure. Well-suited for reading, daydreaming, and introspection, No Words is a quiet, worthwhile recording comparable to George Winston's better works, highlighted by such tracks as the wistful "I Said...You Said" and the wealth of mental images spawned by "American Dream."

TRACKLIST

01. Rocket to the Moon (2:33)
02. Shaker Lakes (4:08)
03. Open Doors (4:13)
04. I Said... You Said (3:31)
05. Wanderlust (3:22)
06. Heartland (3:10)
07. Borders (3:39)
08. Still (2:45)
09. American Dream (3:45)
10. Blue (3:20)
11. Old Times (4:35)
12. So Long (4:04)

Jim Brickman - The Disney Songbook [2005]

QUOTE:

                   New Agey pianist Jim Brickman's history with children-friendly material goes back a long way--one of his early assignments was writing for Jim Henson, after all. On this album, he tackles Disney songs, although that definition is rather flexible. New tracks "Beautiful" (featuring vocalist Wayne Brady) and "I'm Amazed" (featuring country singer Lila McCann) aren't actually from any movie or TV show but inspired by Cinderella. (Other singing guests of note include former American Idol contestants Kimberley Locke and Josh Gracin.) Brickman's approach is so mellow that it's hard to tell the tunes apart in a Mary Poppins medley made up of five different songs, including the usually upbeat "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious." This actually extends to the entire album, which feels like an extended medley. On the plus side, nothing comes in to peskily disrupt the soothing vibe.

TRACKLIST

1. Beauty and the Beast
2. Mary Poppins Medley: Chim Chim Cheree/Feed the Birds/Let's Go Fly a Ki
3. Cruella De Vil
4. Beautiful - Wayne Brady, Jim Brickman
5. Reflection
6. When I See an Elephant Fly - Jim Brickman, Josh Gracin
7. Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah
8. Baby Mine - Jim Brickman, Kassie Depaiva
9. Can You Feel the Love Tonight
10. Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes - Jim Brickman, Kimberley Locke,
11. Someday My Prince Will Come
12. I'm Amazed - Jim Brickman, Lila McCann
13. When You Wish Upon a Star
14. Beautiful [Music Video] - Wayne Brady, Jim Brickman

Jim Brickman - Grace [2005]

QUOTE:

         With countless hits and sold-out concerts to his credit it was a safe bet that Jim Brickman's latest would be great - and, it is. Described by the gifted. Brickman himself as "a selection of songs that soothe the spirit and nurture the soul," Grace is a beautiful collage of uplifting songs that represent and speak to different faiths.
         Baritone Mario Frangoulis (heard during one of Brickman's recent concert tours) offers a lyrical adaptation of "Ave Maria" that is sure to touch hearts, while Brickman himself soars with an interpretation of the Hebrew prayer Ayn Kaylohenu.
         Michael Bolton's powerful rendition of Brickman's original composition "Hear Me" is incredibly moving. The voice of singer/songwriter Ginny Owens brings new meaning to the beloved "Amazing Grace."
         All in all Grace is bound to be another chart-topper for Brickman, and a warm, positive, enriching listen for all.

TRACKLIST

1. Amazing Grace
2. Israel
3. Crown Him With Many Crowns
4. Joyful
5. Ave Maria
6. Jesu
7. How Great Thou Art
8. Heaven
9. Seventh Day
10. Be Thou Near To Me
11. O Sacred Head Now Wounded
12. Holy Holy Holy
13. Hear Me (Tears Into Wine)

Jim Brickman - The Gift [1997]

QUOTE:

Jim Brickman's 1997 holiday package is all satin bows and glowing hearth embers, precisely the approach his romantically inclined legions would have wished him to take. Those with less sentimental ears might argue that at times the pianist's approach is a touch too sweet. "Joy to the World" would be more affecting as a solo work, for instance, and we could have done without the strings and music-box embellishments heard in "Angels." Yet Brickman compensates by delicately tracing a path to our heart-of-hearts in the album's two superb, nonholiday originals, "Fireside" and "Winter Peace." Three vocal tracks surface here: a breathy Kenny Loggins sings on the album's obligatory lullaby ("Starbright"), the female gospel group Point of Grace takes a bow ("Hope is Born Again"), and country vocalist Collin Raye performs a heart-clutching duet with Susan Ashton on the title track. It's not Brickman's finest record, but it's a very pretty one.

TRACKLIST

01-Joy To The World
02-It Came Upon A Midnight Clear
03-Starbright.
04-Angels
05-Fireside
06-What Child Is This
07-Hope Is Born Again
08-Winter Peace
09-The First Noel
10-Oh Christmas Tree
11-Little Town Of Bethlehem
12-Dreams Come True
13-The Gift

相比george winston太过抽象的音乐，我更偏爱jim brickman，很人性，很直接，很浅显，摆脱抽象的意境，给人一种温暖的实在的感觉
