Pianoscapes was technically the first album on Narada, one of the top new age contemporary instrumental labels in the U.S., of Jones's solo piano improvisations.
Jones's playing has a carefree quality grounded in classical impressionistic form and technique.
His pieces breathe and pulse as if they were a part of you, pause for introspection (the somber passage of "Daybreak"), then resolve with glistening clarity.
The overall tone is gentle, tender at times, but without being surface or trite.
The music is very easy to let go into the background, yet it will pull you to notice soul-stirring passes of exquisite beauty and introspection.
