Billy Joel's final studio album, and there's not a rock instrument in sight. Joel composed all twelve pieces in the tradition of 19th-century Romantic piano. Echoes of Schumann, Chopin, and Liszt. But found them too difficult to perform himself, so British-Korean pianist Richard Hyung-ki Joo plays every note. 'Soliloquy (On a Separation)' is an eleven-minute opening that sweeps with emotional grandeur. Pure solo piano, lyrical and direct.
