Steinway artist, Chad Lawson, decided Chopin needed a new introduction.  Along with violinist Judy Kang (Lady Gaga, Ryuichi Sakamoto) and cellist Rubin Kodheli (Kanye West, Norah Jones), Lawson has arranged ten Chopin works into a minimalist landscape.

It's a risk editing the "poet of the piano" but one that Chopin would be proud of.  

Taking 10 Chopin works, Lawson decided to scale the works down to a minimalist setting.  "I knew even if bare-bones, Chopin's works could still be as spellbinding as the original compositions we are so familiar with." says the pianist.  

Produced by Chad Lawson & Alejandro Clavijo. Mixed by Stephen Lee Price.  Mastered by Michael Graves of Osiris Studios (Atlanta, GA).

The Nutcracker Suite: Spanish Dance (Chocolate)

This is one of the more recent solos I've been working on. Although the song was meant to be performed with an accompaniment (thus the seemingly abrupt rests), I was unable to record with a pianist for various reasons. I enjoy the tone within this piece. The pace and feeling that accompanies this song always strikes a chord in me when I hear it making it very enjoyable to perform.

"Winter" is peppered with silvery pizzicato notes from the high strings, calling to mind icy rain
