“Memories of You” is the fourth album released by David M. Edwards. It includes 15 original piano pieces that take the listener on a journey featuring a wide range of emotions. From the joyous “Swallows in Flight” through the stormy “Tempest,” we travel through a landscape featuring elements of the natural world. Ultimately the journey comes to rest with a nice “Walk in the Park,” and a magical transport to the peaceful scene of “Dolphins Swimming Underwater.” It’s a journey you’ll want to take again and again.
“David M. Edwards is a pianist of great style and fluency… a manifestation of a timeless collection of beautiful solo piano compositions, ones that will linger for a long while within the musical memory… an album of the heart, performed by a musician who is clearly playing from it. … it is eternal and played with the honesty and sublime brilliance you would imagine from a seasoned master.”
– Steve Shepherd, One World Music Radio
David M. Edwards played many different styles of music in his career, including classical, jazz, rock and country (one of his bands was signed to Capitol Records) before finding his own style in New Age piano. His first two albums (released as Dave Edwards) were an eclectic mix of styles drawn from his years as a performer. Following the release of those albums, he felt solo piano was the most natural for him. This led to the release of his third album, “Still the River Flows” in 2019.
After that album was released, he developed a series of serious health issues, including osteoarthritis in his hands, which affected his ability to play the piano or read music. He was unable to play the piano for almost three years. After multiple surgeries and physical therapy, he gradually was able to play and compose music again.
His fourth album, “Memories of You,” is the culmination of his struggle to get back to creating music. While he is still somewhat limited in the amount of time he can spend playing, he plays and records new music as much as possible, and hopes to release several more albums in the coming years.
