  • KeyDragon - Solo Piano Pieces
    author: Department of Virtuosity (Poland)

    Do you consider KeyDragon a gothic metal band having five albums released so far? Yes, it is exactly so, however its main character is G. Ron Langford Jr. who was responsible for vocal parts on first four CDs. But he is chiefly a keyboardist and pianist fascinated by dragons, that's why he called himself KeyDragon. Mr. Langford cooperated with many bands like Don't Walk, Body Pyle, The Cool Band, 9th Wave, Dry Rot, Decreation, Execution and Aftershock. KeyDragon released his first solo CD in the year 2002. "Solo Piano Pieces" is a special album, since it was performed on a 1918 Chilton Upright Grand Piano. You will be convinced that the instrument has its unique sound and finally stood the test of time. If you suffer from a dearth of silence, and metal music seems to be nerve-wracking, KeyDragon comes with a relief. I kid you not! If you are poised for absolutely different genre, you shouldn't be disappointed. It is distantly located from metal music. The stuff is lenient and positively infused. We can consider it easy-listening, yet ambitious piano music with several classical references which are ably customized and precisely captured by Ron Langford. Thus, here are the likes of Johann Sebastian Bach's "Allegro in B", Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's "Minuet in F", Ludwig van Beethoven's "Für Elise" and an old French dance played in quadruple time - Georg Friedrich Handel's "Gavotte". "Solo Piano Pieces" is distinguished by manifold shades and various colours included in classical covers and original compositions, being also full of subtlety and nobleness. At the very end, I admit that I don't believe in so-called suck up loyalty to one style only. I am not a worshiper of one or two genres. I love music in general. Ron managed to learn us consider him both classical and metal musician. An instrumental piano music isn't a hurdle for me. It hinges on you, Dear Readers, if you will enjoy it or not.
