This for me is an example of piano based at its very best; there is an echo of solitude about this new single from Jeffrey Baker that I adore, this delicious composition is called My Heart. It doesn’t happen as often as I would like, but every now and then someone will create a piano based composition that I find great solace from, and the musical journey is completely cathartic, this is the case with this new single from Baker.

The mood created is delightfully ambient, quietly unassuming, yet sincere in its arrangement, and the performance is quite meditative, exploring textures and ambient constructs. My Heart is one of those singles, that could have lasted 10 minutes and I personally would have not minded a bit.

The creation itself reminds me of contemporary artists in the instrumental field from a few years back, namely Holland Phillips and Bill Wren, that sense of a timeless reverie that hovers through the windmills of memories of the past, the use of a combination of minor and major chords is equally as delightful.

With ease I would have to say that My Heart from Jeffrey Baker is one of the best piano based singles I have heard this year, and there is not much of that left as I write, in all honesty this one deserves to be a big hit, as it will bring the listener a sanctuary of musical tone and timbre that they will never ever want to leave.
