"... performances that remind us anew why these pieces were everybody's favorites." - William Littler, Toronto Star

"A fine album for both artistic integrity and the sheer pleasure of old friends brought back to life as one first heard them. Pleasures such as this shouldn't be denied oneself." - Bill Watt, The News/Post

"A sweet and congenial disc, happily marrying history and nostalgia for a purer order of musicality." - Montreal Gazette

This two-CD set includes all the great music from The Parlour Grand Volume 1 and The Parlour Grand Volume 2 (Catalog MAR 161 and MAR 201). The two-CD set replaces the single CD versions.

The music features piano favorites from the salon repertoire, including Beethoven's Für Elise and Frédéric Chopin's Valse in C Sharp Minor. These wonderful CDs evokes fond memories of simpler times, and evenings around the piano with family and friends. Performed by renowned pianist Robert Silverman.

This collection is the perfect companion to Robert Silverman's bestselling
Starry, Starry Night.
