                                                                       Everlasting love

A sweet sadness of solitude, reminiscences of the first love, of the best friends and the lucky meetings. A vision of an age of wisdom. Peace and calmness, and a subtle feeling of parting. Rustling of the leafs swept away by a fresh wind in autumn. And joy of being in this world. And deepest gratitude to the existence. And an inexpressible beauty. All this is the music of Kevin Kern. The famous pianist returns to us with his fourth album In My Life.

This music is filled by fragrance, there is a delicate aroma. It is refined and beautiful. It is not only melodical, there is width, there is a flight of inspiration in it. Listening the music of Kevin Kern you note a very interesting feature: together with perfect arranging and unimpeachable, highly professional performance there is spontaneousness. There are freedom and frankness in this music, just the distinctive qualities of the New Age music. And all this is present not only in the Kevin Kern's original compositions but also in We All Fall in Love Sometime by Elton John and in In My Life by Lennon and McCartney. The well known music sounds fresh and unusually lyric.

And also the music of Kevin Kern is deep. It is mature. It is a view of a person who has seen a lot but has not surrendered in spite of the hard blows of life and has preserved himself in this taken leave of its senses world. It is easy and pleasant to communicate with this music. It is bright and light. And it fills you with an optimism, with the unknown reasons.

Two albums of Kevin Kern (the debut In The Enchanted Garden and the second - Beyond The Sundial) have already been included into top ten New Age albums in the hit parade of the Billboard in 1997. Hundreds of thousands of the listeners have chosen the albums of this pianist. Don't miss his new work. There is something in these harmonies, which crears and rises the spirit. It is better and brighter to live in this world with the music of Kevin Kern.
