Quiet piano music to guide focus and calm

Piano Focus

Available for 29 days

Threading together reverb-drenched modernism, early 20th-century elegance, and ambient soundscapes, this collection invites you into a world of hushed intensity and inner reflection. It opens with Debussy’s Ballade Slave and journeys through the subtle worlds of Doreen Carwithen, Urmas Sisask, and contemporary voices like Shida Shahabi, Rachel Portman, and Mette Henriette. Each piece carries its own quiet weight—poised between memory and imagination. To listen on most smart speakers, just say: “Ask ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds to play Piano Focusâ€. Produced by Ãine Devaney. A Reduced Listening production for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds MM.
