Mr. Brian Crain, I have every single cd of yours!!!!  Help me, I need more!!! I am one of your faithful followers from Mandan, N.D. Right now, I am playing your Christmas cd. I have alot of Christmas music, but nothing as wonderful as yours.  Take Care, and keep on keeping on!!

I've been listening to your CD's pretty much non-stop since I received them. They are just so relaxing, and the melodies are enchanting. The beauty is in their simplicity. We had friends to stay over the weekend, and as soon as they heard your music playing, they were asking what it was. After that, they kept on asking if they could put Brian on! I've got five of your CD's, but even that many doesn't seem enough! They are SO beautiful. Composing is something I wish I had the talent and time to do, but for now I'll just enjoy being able to play your compositions. Keep up the good work!

I just wanted to let you know how much you have touched my life. I'm seventeen years old and I've been interested in the piano since I was four years old. I didn't start lessons until later, and now I've taken lessons for about five years. About a year ago I was going through some changes in my life and I let piano fall to a lower level of importance for me. I felt out of touch with that special feeling that I get when I used to play, so I took almost a year off. I felt like I just wasn't doing the music justice. Then, my teacher, found a song for me that she thought I would like. It was "Butterfly Waltz". At first I just saw it as another pretty song that wouldn't mean much to me in a couple of weeks...but I was wrong. When I went home from my lesson I started to learn the song, and I feel in love with it, simple as it is, it's so beautiful. When I played it, I also felt something again...you know that glowing feeling you get when you forget about what your playing and let the music come out on it's own? Well, now I'm back into playing music, and I'm teaching myself "Break in the Clouds". But, I just wanted to thank you for writing the piece and sharing it with people. I appriciate all that writers like you put into each and every song.

I ordered your Christmas album last month and play it every day. It is my first album of yours and i am enjoying it sooooo much! I love your unique style and how you play it as you feel it. My favorite songs are Ave Maria and Amazing Grace. I love them because of the style in which you play them. I guess it will be time soon to purchase another one of your albums.

Our whole family loves your music and attended your concert here in Bismarck. The string quartet was beautiful and the concert was so personal at the Belle. My 10 yr old son listens to your music while he relaxes and reads. Your music just carries the listener away.

I just wanted to say what an AMAZING concert you put on in Bismarck! It was wonderful! You are SO talented. I could have listened to you for hours! I surely hope you will consider doing another concert in Bismarck in the future. You are AWESOME! Thanks for sharing your talent with us. Keep up the GREAT work!

Just came from your first U.S. Concert at Bismarck, North Dakota. Introduced my Brother and Sister-In-Law to your music and they thoroughly enjoyed your concert. My wife and I have been enjoying your music ever since you first came to the Bismarck Street Festival and introduced your music here. It is so enjoyable to listen to such a wonderful talent and from someone so humble. You are so relaxed when you play and are a gifted pianist. At your concert I would close my eyes and when I opened them, it was such a joy to see you and the quartet live. Keep up the good work and best wishes always.

I wanted to tell you a wonderful story of how your music played a very special part in the birth of our first child. She was born on June 18th, 2003. A few months before she was born I received a promotional message on your new Sienna CD and I promptly ordered it (I'm a big fan of your music and would like to eventually own all of your CDs). I would come home from work in the afternoons and just lay down to rest and relax to your music. It was wonderful! As my due date approached we were given the recommendation to bring music with us to the birthing room to help me stay calm and grounded through it all (if that is possible), so we packed your CD along with some other music CDs. It turned out that your CD was the only thing that I wanted to hear (I made my husband put it back on when he tried to switch to something else :^) and it really helped me get through the work I had to do. One of the most precious things that I gained from that miraculous experience is the strong connection between your Sienna CD and that life-changing day. Each time I listen to it I'm right back in that birthing room feeling all the emotion and joy all over again.

Brian: Just wanted to say thank you. Our son, Ben, dropped the piano for a number of years and picked it up again in the middle of his HS junior year. When his friend Bethany got him a book of your music, it was the turning point in his enthusiasm for the piano. Now that he is off to BSU, we have your CDs, which remind us of all the hours we could sit listening to our son play your songs. We look forward to hearing you in person this spring at one of your concerts. Thank you for making a positive difference in our son's life.

My wife and my mom were at an arts and crafts fair a couple of years ago. You had a booth there. Both of them were captivated by your music. Each bought a set of your signed CD's. My wife gave me one set for my birthday. My mom listened to her set all the time. My mother died of cancer last year (2002). We had your music playing in the background during the viewing and family memorial service. We also had a video made of my mom's life and had your music recorded as the sound track. Every time I listen to your music, I am calmed and soothed by it. You are very gifted and extremely talented. My oldest daughter (7 years old) is learning to play piano and is practicing on some of your songs. I look forward to the day when she will be able to play them fluidly. God bless you. Keep making beautiful music!

I was drawn to your music as it permeated the grounds at the arts festival in July. I immediately came to your booth and purchased your entire collection, which you graciously autographed for me, and eagerly anticipated listening to each CD in the car as my family continued to tour western Montana during our vacation. In a word----outstanding!!! Anyone who appreciates the talents of George Winston or Jim Brickman cannot help but appreciate your gift of music. Each song stands on its own and one after another moves me to a very pleasant inner peace. I truly hope that you continue to share your talent with appreciative listeners.

I ran into your music while searching for free sheet music on the internet. I listened, then had to play and then I was hooked. Being in the military I'm accustomed to many overseas deployments but on occation I've been lucky to be deployed to an operation that requires me to stay in a hotel and usually nicer ones that have a piano. So guess what I do now every time I go on vacation or deploy? Yes, I relax by brining my piano music.Well this last vacation of mine was to meet my girlfriend (now my fiancee) at a resort in Kemer, Turkey. I assumed they had a piano and they did. They let me play their beautiful mahogany Yamaha grand. The first song I played was "A Simple Life". I think it was at that point that I had won her over. The next trip was to Dijon, France and the hotel wanted me to stay that evening and play in their restaurant but we had to leave to Paris where I proposed on top of the Tour de Eiffel. She said "yes, of course". So I'd like to point out that your music is a strong inspiration for our love because when we departed Turkey that first meeting I gave her my Brian Crain CD and she plays our "Simple Life" song all the time. She is from Ukraine so now we must wait for her to get fiancee visa. We must talk via the phone for at least 3 months for the process and nearly every night I play some Brian Crain music on my piano for her over the phone. In a week I will travel to Ukraine and meet my new family and of course we are trying to locate a piano so I can play some Brian Crain. Thanks much. Like the idea of playing "A Simple Life" at our wedding.

I just purchased your newest CD yesterday, and I am listening to it right now. It is so beautiful, and touching it brings tears to my eyes. Thank you so much for sharing your gift with others. How wonderful it must be to be doing what you love, and to be such a blessing to others.

I must tell you that your music is beyond compare. I purchased "Iinside the Melody" and as I listened I was drawn into your playing I felt myself sitting beside you watching your hands moving over the ivory keys lifting me away into another world of peace, calm & far away. I had my massage therapist play your cd during a session and she was taken away & drawn into your music. God has truly given you a gift beyond all other. Yanni now takes second place in my music libray compared to your music which is number one. Thank you.

I teach Junior English in a small midwestern high school in Nebraska; I see over 115 students a day. On Fridays I let them 'free read'. This means they can read any book of their choice, or the book we are currently studying. They get a free 'A' if they read, if they talk, do homework or sleep it is an automatic 'F.' I allow them to sit/flop on the floor, (I have several big pillows for this) and I play relaxing music. I remember when I bought your CD, I asked if there were any birds chirping or rain or thunder. (these have put my students into hysterics). You just smiled and said "no, just good music" - boy is that true! I play different types of music, some from films, Dances with Wolves and Last of the Mohicans are good - some light classical and yours. They always ask for yours. I always meant to write you and ask about your other CDs.

Thank you for writing and playing music that can be listen to by the entire family. I had about given up on ever finding any music that brought me chill-bumps again. Yours does! What a wonderful gift to pass on to those who love music. My family and I have been enjoying your music for some time now and will continue to do so. Bill and Darlene

Thank you so much for your music! It is truly an inspiration! I have been playing your music for a some time. My mother found your music when I was still in high school. I instantly fell in love with your music. Currently I will be a senior at the University of Idaho. Being able to find time to play the piano is a difficult challenge with school, however, I look forward to printing out your songs on the internet and playing them. Your music gives me inspiration to set aside time for my true passion- the piano. I just wanted to thank you for that opportunity. In my circle, you are a hit. Whenever we have company, I am asked to play your song. I happily do. Your music is also often requested at my church. They are so uplifting and full of grace. When my sister got married two years ago we tried to get you to play at the ceremony, but unfortunately you do not perform often in public. We still choose to use your music, however, a guitar and a harpist played your songs. My sister actually walked down the aisle to Sunrise. You are a magnificent artist as well as an inspiration. Thank you so much for unselfishly putting your music on the internet for many to enjoy. It is such a generous gift. Have a wonderful summer. I look forward to receiving your new CD soon.

. The first song of Brian's that I heard was "A Break in the Clouds". It stopped me cold!!! It was like I'd heard it a thousand times before, and the chills run up my spine. I went to your WEB site and ordered four of your CD's. There is truly something unique in what you do. It's like a musical tranquilizer. When I listen to them, even though they are new, they are like old friends from some distant past. I can't get enough and listen over and over for hours on end. I play them at work on my computer as I work. If I stop and listen, the music carries me away into a very peaceful place. Thank You Brian!!!!!!

Brian has been an inspirational part of my life for nearly three years now, I first learned of his exquisite music when I met him. It was in Eugene Oregon, at the holiday Market. I walked in with my mother and heard the most beautiful and soothing music I have EVER heard,so I followed the music and it lead me to a stand where Brain was playing his heavenly music and I purchased Change of Seasons. 1 year later I met my now fiancˇ and on our first date while going to the coast I played that tape she to fell instantly in love with the music. It still makes me cry.But since then we have not been able to find any more of your music until we bought our computer and now I am buying all of your music that I can find. I just want to say thank you, you have no idea how much you have meant to so many peoples lives, don't stop making music. I also want you to know that you do make a difference.

A month ago my mother had purchased four of your five albums and I have to tell you that I have never listened to anything more sensational in my life. Every night I listen to these wonderful compositions to unwind. Today I sat down at our piano and played part of "Joys of the Heart". It was so awesome! I had listened to it so often that I could play it by ear. At fourteen years of age I have now got a whole new light on the world and I hope someday I can be as grand as you.

Hello! We bought your albums for my dad's birthday and liked them so much we ordered a set for ourselves. Wehave found your music very soothing and relaxing, and have really enjoyed
listening. We play one of your cds every night in our son's room to helphim go to sleep. You are a very talented artist, and we love your music. Iwill be ordering your new cd this week -- one for us and one for my dad. Best of luck to you!

I stumbled across your web site while searching for piano sheet music. My parents recently gave me our family piano, so I'm getting back into playing again. I found your web site, and was pleasantly surprised I could download your sheet music for free. I have played "Fly Away" and "A Simple Life" over and over. The are beautiful songs! I look forward to returning to your web site to see the latest releases. Keep up the excellent work!

Yesterday, I was walking around the booths of the "Arts in the Park" festival and heard this wonderful music playing around the next tent. I walked over and met you and listened to your music. It was soul soothing. And you were so unassuming and friendly. I didn't know which CDs to buy, they were all so wonderful but finally chose "A Simple Life" and "Northern Sky." I play them all the time. Now I can't wait until I can afford the rest of them. You are gifted and need to be heard. Thank you for sharing your tremendous gifts with us.
