Experience the beauty of piano music with Olga's unique collection of unique pieces, including world premiere recordings!Olga Schepps' long-awaited collection of pieces since the 2015 release of Vocalise is a relaxing collection of piano masterpieces that are perfect for playlists.

All of the pieces are Scheps' favorites, so of course there are some familiar pieces scattered throughout, such as Chopin's "Nocturne No. 2," "For Elise," and "Turkish March," but almost half of the album is made up of works by so-called contemporary composers, born after 1950. Ludovico Einaudi, known for his soft and beautiful melodies, Herbig, who is said to have been influenced by him, Batti, a producer, and Grammy Award winner Gonzalez. The diverse compositions by these four cutting-edge composers stimulate the listener's imagination endlessly. Gonzalez's "Olga Sieg" is dedicated to Scheps.
