The Piano Guys: A Prelude to the New Year

The Christmas holiday is over. I am learning to appreciate piano playing again after a thirty year hiatus. "Where are You Christmas?" brought a few tears amidst a solemn joy in the moment.



For me, 2014 has been a year of sadness.  There is an aspect of grief to the song "O Come, O Come, Emmanuel" with a view towards the coming of the Messiah, his birth, death, burial, resurrection, and future second coming of God With Us. A rendition by the Piano Guys. I value the plaintive, contemplative, and soulful mourning in this piece. It is suitable to the holiday season and serves as a prelude as we approach the New Year.


I appreciate the architectural setting for this piano-cello concert since it is reminiscent of solid foundations, ancient antiquity, history, and beauty.

Arwin's Vigil is a solemn and powerful triumph indicative of a searching and watchful journey.


Hope my reader's enjoy this introduction if you haven't heard them. Thanks Piano Guys.
