Solo Piano
Barry DeGroot
"There are albums that entertain, and there are albums that speak. Unspoken Conversations, the latest release by pianist and composer Barry DeGroot, belongs firmly to the latter. It is an intimate collection of seven instrumental pieces where every note feels like a fragment of an unspoken dialogue between the heart and the piano. Rooted in neo-classical and new age aesthetics, the album unfolds as a tender confession, a private diary finally shared with the world after years of quiet hesitation." - Tunite Music
Reviews
Unspoken Conversations by Barry DeGroot is an exceptional piano based album that contains an added string base at times; here is an example of good, honest and heartfelt piano, and to be candid, I wish more piano based music was like this, full of tone and intent, full of emotional moods, but ready to manifest a meditative moment when pertinent, this is piano at its very best and as such I believe should do well on the charts for Unspoken Conversations by Barry DeGroot.ONE WORLD MUSIC RADIO

Barry DeGroot is one of those rare individuals who has captured everything I have expressed about instrumental piano music on his album Unspoken Conversations. The influence of classical music is more than apparent and a critical foundation from which every composition is born and reaches fruition.NEW AGE MUSIC REVIEWS
About
Born into a home where music gently echoed through the walls, Barry discovered the piano almost by instinct, first by listening to his mother’s lessons, then by finding his own melodies among the keys. From those early days, sound became his way of understanding the world: classical works like Moonlight Sonata stirred his imagination, while the shimmering textures of ’80s synthesizers and the calm introspection of Windham Hill’s new age music shaped the dual nature of his musical soul.
For decades, life carried him elsewhere, to careers, responsibilities, and the hectic routines of the corporate world, but the piano remained a constant companion, a place where he could return to feel, remember, and breathe.Now, at this new chapter of his life, he steps fully into that world he never left behind, composing, performing, and creating with renewed freedom, sharing at last the music that has always spoken for him when words could not.With Unspoken Conversations, Barry not only shares his long-guarded compositions but also a piece of his inner world. Each track feels like a conversation once left unfinished, now spoken aloud through the piano’s language of touch and resonance. The result is an album that is both introspective and inviting, offering solace to anyone who has ever felt something too deep to articulate.With Unspoken Conversations, Barry not only shares his long-guarded compositions but also a piece of his inner world.
