Experience the soulful depth of Cocktail Mix Five, a unique blend of introspective ballads, uplifting spirituals, and classic jazz. Featuring heartfelt arrangements of hits like Your Song and Somewhere Out There alongside iconic pieces like Hymn to Freedom and My Favorite Things. Recorded by Richard Kahn on the Yamaha Disklavier DS3X, this 10-track collection delivers a profoundly emotional and technically perfect high-definition piano performance.
Cocktail Mix Five is perhaps the most emotionally resonant volume in the series. It moves beyond simple ambiance to offer deeply moving interpretations of beloved songs. The playlist is a masterclass in dynamic contrast, transitioning from the uplifting, soulful spirit of a Gospel Hymn to the tender intimacy of a classic Ballad.
Pianist Richard Kahn returns to the exceptional Yamaha Disklavier DS3X 6’1” Grand Piano, perfectly suited to capture the rich textures required for this collection. The Disklavier’s technology faithfully reproduces the subtle touch required for the expressive ballads (My Funny Valentine, Someone to Watch Over Me) and the complex, layered rhythms of the Jazz Waltzes (My Favorite Things, All Blues), ensuring a truly acoustic and authentic experience on your piano.
This album offers a remarkable stylistic journey. Highlights include the inspiring power of Oscar Peterson’s Hymn to Freedom, the melodic beauty of Jobim’s Wave, and inventive arrangements of enduring pop classics like Elton John’s Your Song. This is an essential collection for listeners who appreciate both technical excellence and deep emotional expression in their music.
