Product Description

The 2009 album Numbers, Colors And People (recorded in one day at Philip Glasss studio) is all instrumental piano with a soft-pedal style that would become Shapiros trademark. The albums standout track Mint Green would go on to define Shapiro's early career. This six-minute jewel in its nature is furtive, an arcing, pacey piano solo which rises and falls delicately, its melody slowly emerging from a Debussy-like haze of almost-hesitancy. No matter how many times its heard you have to return to its cascading style. Mint Greens astonishing success on the Internet (over 14 million plays on Pandora Internet Radio) and as a regular soundtrack on American television belies its origins. In fact, Mint Green was directly inspired by the Cocteau Twinss track My Truth from their 1993 album Four-Calendar Café. Mark Prendergast, author, The Ambient Century
