"Craig Urquhart is a truly gifted composer... his tonal approach is not merely sincere, but genuinely moving, with a private beauty of its own."
---LEONARD BERNSTEIN

Composer/solo pianist Craig Urquhart creates rich melodic landscapes which blossom into dramatic journeys from the heart. Expressing his passion for the environment as well as a belief in the healing power of music, while drawing upon the influences of classical music's keyboard masters, Urquhart has become one of modern acoustic New Age's most transcendent voices.

Craig "... draws on the rhythms of nature, because when you look at nature, you can get everything you need," he explains. "You have the rhythm, you have the color - I have an emotional relationship to nature. The rhythm of the ocean, the wind in the trees, and our harmonies and melodies - they all come from nature. That's one reason I like the piano so much - it's an organic instrument."

Among Craig's many reviews, By Kathy Parsons of Solo Piano Publications writes "Evocation is a stunning collection of original piano solos by Craig Urquhart. The grace and depth of emotion conveyed in Urquhart's music is a reminder of how profound and colorful the piano can be in all its glory as a solo instrument. The music is accessible and easy to understand, but this is not the sort of music you would use for background music. This is music to be savored many times with full attention, and perhaps in a darkened room without distractions."
