Released in 2004 by Real Music, Real Piano – A Collection is a beautifully curated compilation of piano-centered New Age pieces that brings together some of the most respected names in contemporary instrumental music.

The collection opens with David London’s “Horizons,” setting a hopeful and expansive tone that immediately draws the listener in. Omar Akram’s “Free As A Bird” follows, with its soaring melody capturing a sense of liberation and emotional warmth. Jean-François Maljean’s “Via Aurelia” adds a European touch of elegance, while Danny Wright interprets Yanni’s “Whispers in the Dark” with tenderness and subtle passion. Gandalf’s “Bridge of Confidence” is another highlight, combining gentle piano lines with his signature atmospheric depth.

Bernward Koch brings a sense of seasonal lightness with “Deep Green Summer” and “Childhood Hour,” evoking pastoral imagery and heartfelt nostalgia. Meanwhile, Omar Akram’s “A Day With You” shines with romantic warmth, and Jim Chappell’s “Mockingbird Days” carries his familiar blend of playfulness and reflection.

The album closes gracefully with Frederic Delarue’s “A Moment of Bliss,” a fitting title for the serene atmosphere the collection sustains from beginning to end. Real Piano – A Collection is more than just a sampler; it is a flowing, cohesive journey through the expressive potential of the piano.
