    Help me find something to listen to

     
    Hi, I really like modern instrumental piano pieces. Like this example. I hope posting this doesn't violate any copyright laws, it's only a 20 sec clip of a melody from CSI:

    IF anyone could tell me where I could find more of stuff like this...I really enjoy music like that.

    I would look into movie scores, like American Beauty, Solaris, etc. Lots of them use Piano themes like that.

    even thought there arent regularly any pianos, van halen is always a good choice.

    The man you're looking for is Thomas Newman. He did the instrumental pieces for American Beauty and Scent of a Woman. Both of those movies had excellent piano themes. One of the more notable songs he did is called "lunch with the king" so that's what to look for if you feel the need to sample his music....

    Yeah Thomas Newman is very good, he also did the shawshank redemption which won best picture in 1993 You may also want to look into John Williams, and especially Hanz Zimmer, as well as Rachel Portman who did the Cider House Rules and a few other notables.
