Chilly Gonzales - Chambers (2015)

Chilly Gonzales, Canadian pianist and entertainer, is back with his highly anticipated followup to Solo Piano II - Chambers, an album for piano and string quartet. This is the pianist's modern take on classical chamber music, with Hamburg's Kaiser Quartett at his side. Chilly Gonzales has always maintained he's a man of his time, and he has made music with some of the great practitioners of electronic and rap music, such as Drake, Daft Punk and Boys Noize. "I've made a point to apply the musical and philosophical approach of these styles to my piano projects," he told CBC Music, "and now hopefully to my nascent chamber phase.? "Thus, a collection of 12 pieces, each with a dedication indicating the inspiration behind it, ranging from J.S. Bach, Gabriel Faure and Reinhold Gliere on the classical side, to Rick Ross, Daft Punk and Juicy J.
