"when I heard this album, it inspired my to take piano lessons at age 28. Now 10 years later, I am still enjoying listening, and playing a bit better than when I started."
Beautiful and Inspiring Music!

I am a piano teacher and have found Jon Schmidt's music to be the best motivation I can find to get 12-16 year olds practicing the piano because they want to. I have started offering incentives for my students to win tickets to his concerts. Going to one of his concerts has done more to encourage practicing than anything else. They decide they are willing to play songs that are more difficult than their current level, just because the songs are fun to play.
Personally, I love to play his music! On exceedingly stressful days, I play "A Day in the Sunset" and lie down with my eyes closed...... aaaahhhhhh! My personal favorites are "Morning Light," and "Sacred Groud.""
