Press
play
on
Lanois’
captivating
new
instrumental
collection,
Player,
Piano,
and
you’ll
be
transported,
too.
Each
song
here
is
a
portal,
an
invitation
to
lose
yourself
in
the
moment
and
disappear
into
a
world
of
imagination
and
memory.
Lanois
recorded
the
entire
collection
himself,
capturing
a
series
of
gentle,
exotic
piano
performances
at
his
studio
in
Toronto
with
the
help
of
co-producer
Dangerous
Wayne
Lorenz,
and
the
results
are
both
intimate
and
expansive
all
at
once.
Melodies
unfold
slowly
with
patience
and
grace;
ethereal
arrangements
drift
around
them
like
fog
rolling
through
the
mountains.
More
than
just
an
album,
Player,
Piano
is
a
gateway
into
a
cinematic
sonic
universe
full
of
mystery
and
wonder,
a
place
where
the
lines
between
reality
and
fantasy
blur
and
deep
truths
and
desires
reveal
themselves
in
profound
and
unexpected
ways.
“Making
this
record
transported
me,”
says
Daniel
Lanois.
“I
got
to
travel
to
Cuba
and
Mexico
and
Jamaica.
I
got
to
visit
with
the
ghosts
of
Erik
Satie
and
Oscar
Peterson
and
Harold
Budd.
I
got
to
go
back
in
time
to
my
work
with
Brian
Eno
and
Kate
Bush
and
Emmylou
Harris.
And
I
did
it
all
without
ever
leaving
my
studio.”
