CHARBONNEAU
played by Scott Kirby
“Scott Kirby’s
recording CHARBONNEAU is beautiful and shows another
side of him, from the wonderful title song and his
other compositions, to his great interpretations of
known and obscure gems by other composers"
-- George Winston
This recording by Scott Kirby may be
categorized only as piano music. Descriptions of
the styles could include terra verde, American
traditional, American romantic, French traditional,
creole, Brazilian classical, Mexican popular,
children’s song and new age. Such a range of
musical genres does not lend itself to commercial
success because of the obvious difficulty in
offering a convenient label or marketing niche.
This recording was done purely for a love of the
music, in the hopes that something in the
performance, or perhaps even an extra-musical
quality, will carry it to as many listeners as
possible. Scott considers this his most sincere and
expressive recording, perhaps best illuminated by
the title track, “Charbonneau.”
