Solo Piano Video Eric Zimmermann
I started thinking about Easter and what music might be included in the “sound track” for this celebration. Optimism, renewal, a new beginning and just plain fun.
Here is a short program of Solo Piano recordings featuring excerpts of songs:
“I Can See Clearly Now” Johnny Nash
“Beach Spring” Benjamin Franklin White (1844)
“Here Comes The Sun” George Harrison
“Skye Boat Song” from Outlander
“Easter Parade” Irving Berlin
Tenderly, American Love Song Standard – Pianist Eric Zimmermann
Habanera from Carmen, G. Bizet – Pianist Eric Zimmermann
Autumn Dinner Party with the Elegant Music Jazz Trio
It is amazing the infinite variety of music possible with solo piano. As a pianist the keyboard is like an orchestra at my fingertips; I can play just about play anything.
Any melody, any song, any Christmas Carol, even “Happy Birthday” can be found somewhere on the piano keyboard.
The piano can play and sustain many notes at one time. So melody and harmony and rhythm are played by this single instrument.
With piano it is possible for a single performer to entertain hundreds of people.
Beauty And The Beast (Jazz Waltz) Solo Piano
Out doors or in locations where an acoustic piano is not available. It is easy to bring a keyboard and small amplification.
Talking about music with another starts an adventure of discovery.
Adding your favorite instruments to piano expands the variety of music possible exponentially.

Puttin’ On The Ritz – Solo Piano by Eric Zimmermann
Puttin’ On The Ritz @ Sambi Restaurant Downey California
This link is a nostalgic throw back for me to a great restaurant that was a Downey California landmark for over 40 years. This video was shot “live” at Sambi Japanese restaurant probably over 5 years ago. I had the pleasure of playing there on Wednesday and Thursday nights. The “rushing” sound that you hear in the background was from a cascading fountain in the center of the restaurant. Ask anyone from Downey and they will all tell you what a great place Sambi was.
What are your favorite songs?
Here is a link to a very interesting conversation I had about music with a celebrity of The Dick Van Dyke Show. See: Song Lists and Choosing Your Favorite Music
As always, talking about music is an adventure. I look forward to speaking with you and hearing your ideas about music.
Sincerely, Eric Zimmermann
