New Age
Browse New Age piano sheets with calm, playable notation. New age is music made to inspire, relax and lift the mood. Listeners use it for yoga, meditation, reading or simply to make a room feel calm, and it grew up in Europe and the United States in the 1960s and early 1970s from roots in electronic, ambient, folk and classical music. Despite the name, most of its musicians have nothing to do with New Age spirituality, and some reject the label altogether. Yanni is a good example. The Greek composer, keyboardist and pianist is the main name on ZenPiano's New Age shelf, with pieces such as One Man's Dream, In The Morning Light, Felitsa and Until The Last Moment. He has said that new age is a spiritual definition more than a musical one, and his music is also described as contemporary instrumental, a blend of jazz fusion, world music, classical and soft rock. His 1993 concert at the Herodes Atticus Theatre in Athens was released as the live album and concert film Live at the Acropolis. Yiruma's River Flows in You and Fairy Tale complete the core of the shelf, along with Jon Schmidt's All of Me. Listening across the shelf, you will hear most pieces pair a clear, singing melody with flowing broken chords and unhurried harmony. That makes these pieces rewarding to learn. Several start at beginner level, and the main challenge is control rather than speed: an even left-hand pattern, a melody that sings above it, and careful use of the sustain pedal so the harmony blurs gently instead of turning muddy.
