Reviews
“He has a gift for composition that is second to none.” New Age Reporter
“…for those who like their solo piano music rich and full.” Wind & Wire
“…for those who like their solo piano music rich and full.” Wind & Wire
“… indeed meditative and mellow, [he] sacrifices no musical rigor to achieve those ends. With backgrounds in jazz, Latin music, rock, pop, film composing, and classical piano, Louis
brings his breadth and depth of experience to bear here. His playing and compositions are sensitive as they are complex and… a diverse range of influences is more than apparent.”
Keyboard Magazine
“While some pianists are virtuosos in their playing and others may not be as technically proficient but have great emotional content in their music, Louis Landon brings it all together
with impeccable style and grace. His work covers diverse compositional terrain, incorporating influences of classical, new age, jazz, pop, and more in a mellifluous spectrum of moods
and musical colors.” Michaeldiamondmusic.com
