"I love you' - celebrating the gentle piano music of John Grace

By Caroline Watts - 12/05/2008

In a world of increasing cacophony, John’s Grace's latest album of charming, gentle piano music will be a source of real balm and pleasure for all those over fifty. Called "I Love You", it includes live recordings, a terrific range of melodies and well-known ballads, and his own compositions such as ‘I Love You’. But whatever the song, his passion and expertise shine through.

 

John Grace is a born pianist, playing by ear from the age of four, and studying it earnestly from the age of five. He told the Mature

Times: "Over the last forty years I have worked with all types of musical ensembles, from Rock and Roll bands, Big Bands and jazz groups to country and western outfits.

 

"In the early 80s I played with the time-honoured Palm Court Orchestra at the Grand Hotel, Eastbourne, and have played all types of venue, from concert hall to theatre to clubs, radio and television. And I still love playing."

 

John has especially enjoyed his cabaret work as a soloist, playing top holiday centres all over the UK and on Olsen cruise liners - and he has several successful  albums, both solo and combo, to his credit.
