Frahm, a composer that more and more specializes in simple, unpretentious piano work, crafted a gorgeous, moving piece of instrumental music with the aptly titled Solo. Each song beautifully communicates an almost tangible sense of time and place, moving from one gorgeous, melancholy scene to another. Frahm has toed the line between neo-classical and ambient for some time, and understands how to build movements that can enhance the listener's current environment or transport them altogether. It's simple, elegant sonic wallpaper that works equally well framed and displayed. Although the production of most instrumental recordings is focused on removing external noise and sounding as clean as possible, Frahm goes the other direction. You can hear every sustain-pedal release and hammer strike. The result is an album that sounds like a live performance. In your living room. Three feet away.
