The Piano Pieces by Christopher Ferreira Christopher Ferreira : The Piano Pieces.
 Neoclassical piano that tells a nostalgic story....

The Piano Pieces is the first complete recording of Christopher's solo piano music. It is an album that he has dreamed of making for many years. Some of the earliest pieces ("A Minor Waltz", "Beatrice") had their beginnings as far back as 1994 when he was given his first piano and began learning about music.

Many of the pieces have appeared in various forms in Christopher's film work, but he has continually revised and reworked them in the hopes of one day making an album of his solo piano music. Over the years fragments of revisions were recorded, noted, lost and discovered, rewritten and lost again until 2009 when Christopher made the decision to try and bring all of this material together into one cohesive work. Nineteen months later, The Piano Pieces was recorded in its entirety at Skywalker Sound in Nicasio, California.
