What we say about Book of Leaves (For Solo Piano), by Rachel Grimes

Rating: happy This record left our Brett feeling happy.

I love a bit of Rachels, me. Funny how Rachel Grimes is in them and they're not named after her though.. Would you bloody credit it. Book of Leaves (For Solo Piano) is a gorgeous collection of shortish piano pieces which are thoroughly evoking an autumnal feel in my mind, it could just be the suggestive artwork and title or the fact that it was a bit nippy on my walk to work this morning but still, it's very fitting. The playing runs the gamut from plaintive, balladic chording to nimble key jumping, taking in styles both classical (neo and regular) and folky, all in the service of the lovely, peaceful and melancholy atmosphere.. It's making me delve into past happy autumns, collecting conkers, coming to the time of year when I realise Huddersfield Town won't be getting promoted this season, kicking piles of leaves to reveal dead tramps and all that. It's very, very nice!
