Over the years, Bob has encountered many of the over 4000 brands of manufactured pianos and is constantly amazed at how a deceivingly complex instrument of 8000 to 12000 parts has been unchanged in its overall part design and manufacture over all those years. Sure, there are qualitative differences but few overall design differences. One thing is for sure. . .no two are alike regardless of the maker - similar, but always a one of a kind for better or worse.

His new age-style piano originals take you to a place reminiscent of Yanni, and , in fact, are every bit as good. . . (Windows & Bridges) is not only worthy of your buying dollars and time, but will also make a great gift to anyone with a zest for life.
