Transcendent piano sounds to anchor your mind

Available for 27 days

Dreamy repose meets elegant refinement in this selection spanning 10 decades of classical and contemporary piano, carefully curated to ease the mind and invite calm. From the softly yawning reverberations of Shida Shahabi to a rare glimpse of György Ligeti’s more Romantic sensibilities, each piece offers space to breathe. British composers Fiona Brice, Duval Timothy, and Conrad Clipper reflect the depth and diversity of the UK’s modern piano landscape, while Isaac Albéniz, Cécile Chaminade, and Reynaldo Hahn bring their own European idiosyncrasies to this delicate, immersive journey. To listen on most smart speakers, just say: “Ask BBC Sounds to play Piano Focus”. Produced by Áine Devaney. A Reduced Listening production for BBC Sounds MM.
