Yiruma.

:)


I want to give a lengthy preamble about this guy, but I think Yiruma speaks for himself.
He is absolute love. He's a South Korean pianist composer producer guy, and he's pretty well known around the world.

I recently stumbled accross a collection of all Yiruma's albums and went to downloading frenzy. I knew about him for a while, but it wasn't until I downloaded those few pieces that I became hooked. His songs are emotional, inspirational, wonderful . He composes some of the most beautiful piano pieces I've ever heard. He's just that good. I actually cried listening to his River Flows In You. It really is breath taking. Like poetry with no words.

I cannot tell you how much I love his pieces. He's just..... guh piano. XD His works have undeniable autumn-like qualities, but every song has its own story, which makes the music even more meaningful and personal, like reading a diary.

His pieces are those that you would listen to in a morning-time-between-8-9 kinda mood. The non-percussion, dreamy, utterly beautiful style is just *____* pretty. Yes I know I'm a sucker for old-school melodic, pretty piano pieces and his album has it. All of it.

I'm so amazed at how he uses altered chords and suspensions and all those chord extensions. Definitely learning to play the songs :D

I could just go on and on, but I'll just tell you to download them instead. ♥
