REVIEWS OF MUSIC TO DRIVE BY = New Piano CD from STAN WIEST

“Not only is he a terrific pianist, but his choice of material is absolutely first rate- some truly

great songs, very well played”  PETER DUCHIN

Completing the recordings in eight hours was “a feat,” says Euphoria owner David Sokol, who was impressed by Wiest’s performance. “The man knows every tune, he knows music history,” Sokol says. “He’s a serious musician and ‘serious musician’ is the highest compliment I can pay . . . I’ve heard the greatest musicians in the world, and Stan is excellent.”

Dick Robinson, host of WHLI/1100 AM’s “American Standards by the Sea,” is also impressed by Wiest’s piano stylings. “His album is a nice reflection of the American Songbook,” he says. “I love that a song like ‘Night and Day’ is just piano. No trio, no big band, no singer. Stan does a wonderful job.”

Featuring songs of the Great American Songbook STAN WIEST has put his own interpretations and arrangements to such great songs as "All The Things You Are", "Night and Day", "The Way You Look Tonight", "Where Or When", "Singing In The Rain", "East Of The Sun","A Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square", "Love Look Away", "You Were Meant For Me","My One And Only Love","Lovely Way To Spend An Evening", "You're Sensational","Use Your Imagination","I Know Why And So Do You","Over The Rainbow","Till There Was You","Moon River","What A Wonderful World",I'll Buy You A Star","Someday My Prince Will Come" and many more.

On November 30 , 2012,  Stan recorded at Euphoria Studios in Manhattan for 8 hours. He was offered two ways to record: One result would be a CD recording  that sounded like it was done in the studio. The second way, which was more difficult, would sound  as if the piano was in the car or room with you when you played the CD.  Stan chose this method, resulting in a dramatically increased presence in the sound of the piano, it sounds like you are right next to the piano when you play the CD. This method of recording allowed no overdubs, each track had to be recorded straight through from beginning to end.  The resulting sound, on a fantastic Yamaha Grand Piano, is an elegant journey through Stan’s piano arrangements and interpretations. When listening to this CD one can hear all the echoes of years of training. The finesse and grandeur of a truly classical training blaze forth in glorious details in finger dexterity.
