You need to specify christian/classical-jazz.
If it is christian you're looking for, my recommendation would be Ben Tankard, Ramsey Lewis.

If it is the other, easy to listen to would be David Benoit, a little more advanced listening would be Joe Sample, Chic Corea, Oscar Peterson. And by a "little" that really means "lots" because they are the greatest!

I could also record my great rendition of Van Halen's "Jump" for ya, it ROCKS!, he he

Depends what style of music you like. Classical? Jazz? Rhythm/Blues? Southern Gospel? Easy Listening? Contemporary? Rock?

LOL! Monkeyman! I assumed everyone would know I was referring to Christian. lol! Thanks for clarifying for me, though.

No thanks for Van Halen! But, if Lionel Richie had a Christian Piano CD - I would buy it!!!

Are the above named people Christian artists?

TIA!

I like all genre's of music, so anything is good. I listened to a couple at the Bible bookstore the other day, but I didn't like them. In other words, I like them all, but some artists don't do the piano justice.

I don't play by ear and finally found Moonlight Sonata in sheet music the other day. People hardly carry that anymore. My mother had the most beautiful Cherry Wood antique sheet music cabinet I have ever seen. She sold it to her sister! I was crushed!

There's quite a lot available. If your Christian bookstore doesn't have much of a selection on the rack they might could order some in for you. We do that all the time for our customers. It's easier if you can give them a title.

You might want to check out Christianbook.com. It's a pretty huge website and you can order from them. We use it at Blessings as a resource site all the time. Click on "Music" They have an "Instrumental" section so you could check it out for ideas.

Thanks. I'm a member of Sound And Spirit and have done that. I just wanted to see if anyone had some that they listen to and could recommend. I've bought several instrumentals and didn't care for them. I'll check out Christian Book - I have an account with them also.

Thanks, Becky. I absolutely had that one in mind and wondered why I don't have it in my collection already. That will be my first order!

God Bless,
