Reflective and Introspective

"This is a collection of quiet, soothing music that brings a smile to the heart and warms the soul. A number of piano albums often seem empty without accompaniment, yet Mr. Wright illustrates why solo piano can be the most expressive of any musical medium. His compositions are clean, clear, and crisp...much like the season he evokes in his title. The album contains selections that are uplifting and full of hope, while others are spare and atmospheric. As I listen to the music, I often imagine the artist in a meadow, beneath a canopy of golden and amber leaves, the sunlight dappled on his keyboard...a time for reflection...for instrospection."

Aptly titled and perfect for curling up with a good book!

"If you enjoy simple piano recordings not overly flowery or heavily styled, you will enjoy Autumn Dreams. You can really sense the leaves falling and the fragrance of the land during the seasonal change. It is in good company with other pianists such as Jim Brickman or Liz Story."

A Melodical thought of peace and tranquility

"This album begins soft and peaceful, and eventually delves deeper into your thoughts. I find that it is incredibly relaxing, and even though only one track is actually titled "Autumn Dreams" I find that the entire collection makes me remember my favorite time of year. Most of the pieces seem to be a variation of each other, but I can still listen to this CD for hours at a time."
