CD: The Sunflower Waltz

Anne's fourth release, The Sunflower Waltz, is collection of solo piano melodies crafted on one of the nest pianos in the world, the Shigeru Kawai. Envisioned and recorded at Piano Haven Studio, this superb compilation highlights the power of a singular instrument to evoke a spectrum of emotions. The original compositions include ten melodically and rhythmically diverse new pieces along with solo piano re-imaginings of six previously released songs. Lively and upbeat, thoughtful and meditative, the music presents a wealth of melodic character and nuance.

CD: Watching For Rain

Anne's third release, Watching for Rain, contains ten originals plus the Welsh folk melody “The Ash Grove,” the traditional spiritual “I Want To Be Ready,” the modern gospel “H. I. A. T. W.,” the Don Schlitz-Paul Overstreet country classic “When You Say Nothing At All” and a 37-second benediction-like coda of Bob Dylan’s “I Shall Be Released.” Trenning also offers a new arrangement of the Celtic-spirited “Eden Hall” that originally appeared on her first recording. Her new material ranges from the grand and stately “The Welcome Song” (featuring a piano-cello-violin trio) to the Americana minuet-feel of “Carolina Moon.” “You and Me” is about the evolving nature of relationships. “A Prayer for the World” is both reverent and soulful.
