Stunning collection of quiet and soft piano pieces by the legendary German keyboardist Hans-Joachim Roedelius co-founder of seminal krautrock bands as Cluster and Harmonia. Inspired by the monumental work of Eric Satie, the album was originally released in 1991. Roedelius exhibits an unexpected subtlety on the keys which lighten these pieces lovingly and pointedly. It’s hardly surprising that the name of the album is a reference to the term ‘pianissimo’, which means to play softly. These are after-dark vignettes to play as you drift into a peaceful slumber, and you can be certain to have sweet dreams that night. Gorgeous, understated and sure to appeal to solo piano fetishists everywhere
