Goldmund - All Will Prosper


My Rating: 3.7/5

My favourite young multi-instrumental musician and modern composer, Keith Kenniff, aka Goldmund, Helios and also member of indie band Mint Julep, is really an efficient talent……..under the moniker Goldmund which mainly focus on thoughtful beautiful piano solo, he has just released the gorgeous ‘Famous Places’ last year and now come again for this new album ‘All Will Prosper’………following the intimacy recording approach of last ‘Famous Places’ by putting mic aside the piano’s mechanism, you can still hear the clear and airy mechanism movement sound of the piano in this new album…….this time is no more contemporary compositions, but to have 14 pieces of traditional folk songs during American civil war era to be rearranged by Keith Kenniff played under solo piano and acoustic guitar…….although they are old songs, but Goldmund can just turn them into some rich, bright, nostalgic, intimate and touching modern piano solo works!!! A great time-traveling album by a great contemporary musician!!!
