Here''s what the media is saying.....
"Ann Sweeten is an extremely talented woman in the music industry. Not just a musician, but a composer, arranger and producer, Ann is a pianist whose abilities are unrivalled. Technical composition, only to be expected from a background in classical, is blended with originality and passion, delivering pianist perfection." Linear Reflections
"If you haven''t heard Ann Sweeten''s music before, you are in for a treat because of her beautiful melodies and command of the grand piano." Jazz News
"Outstanding album!" Boston Post-Gazette
"Very much on the beam new age piano work, this set is well-textured and engrossing throughout, making Sweeten a sure bet to be one of those left-field sensations everyone thinks came out of nowhere. A winning adult music bet." Midwest Record Recap
"Ann Sweeten''s Sapphire Days is quite simply one of the most graceful and quietly soothing albums I''ve heard. Very highly recommended!" Solo Piano Publications
"If you''re inclined to just kick back and take in some beautiful and relaxing keyboard compositions, Ms. Sweeten''s CD is one of the best piano albums we''ve heard. You can very clearly hear that she''s been classically trained, but her playing style is relaxed enough to convey freedom from convention. You can''t call this music ''Jazz'', nor can you pigeonhole it as ''New Age''...because it''s purely/simply ''Ann''. Highly Recommended! Improvisation Nation
She has six discs available: Reflections, Passage, Prism Christmas Presence, Sapphire Days and now,
A Place in the Sun.
