Jones' "Endings," Gratz' "Dark Eyes," and Gettel's "Orcas" are among the first disc's highlights, along with Mia Jang's "Water Circles," Shelia Larkin's "Poetic Justice," and Spencer Brewer's "Ghost Mountain." Disc two features Fred Simon's "Sister Bay," Michael Whalen's "First Light," Bradley Joseph's "The Glen," and Bob Read's "Turning." This smoothly sequenced collection of soothing piano pieces reaffirms Narada's place as one of the leading labels for New age / Contemporary instrumental music, and 20 Years of Narada Piano will appeal not only to fans of the artists and the label, but anyone looking for some creative and relaxing mood music..
