Music to My Ears: Piano

After last week's season finale of Downton Abbey, I don't know what I'm going to do with my Sunday Nights. All week I look forward to that dramatic piano theme to play as we prepare to see what new drama will unfold in the Grantham household. It's amazing how much emotion a good piece of piano music can evoke. And I love how taking the words out of a favorite song can give it a whole new sound and meaning. It's one of the reasons I love shopping at Nordstrom where the pianists often play remixed versions of pop favorites strictly with a piano. When I'm trying to get work done and need to be able to focus, or I just want some relaxing background music, I often turn to my piano playlist. I've even added the Downton theme song to help me get my fix until next January. What are some of your piano favorites?
