The Piano by Chad Lawson Chad Lawson : The Piano.
 Multi-award winning pianist and composer who is not afraid to put his hat in anything.

From the opening variation of Johann Sebastian Bach's Prelude in C Major, to Lawson's own originals drawing from his early classical studies, The Piano is beautifully simple and unadorned from the first note to the last ringing of the last sustain.

"Gorgeous soft, subtle, sensual touch that not only picks up where his stellar debut left off but has also raised his game. The Piano is very clear and strong evidence that Chad Lawson is already a major player in the solo piano circles."
Michael Debbage - MainlyPiano.com

"Lawson's playing defines "velvet touch," and he often approaches the piano with the French Impressionists' ideal - playing the piano as though it doesn't have hammers. A classically-trained pianist with an extensive jazz background, Lawson can do it all when it comes to music, but his original solo piano work is nothing short of sublime."
