Jose Bonet

Born in Valencia, Spain, Jose Bonet is a pianist and composer with a solid artistic talent, which can be appreciated both in his live performances and in his soundtracks. The author of over forty five piano works, he has known how to developed his own style, between New instrumental Music and the most romantic side of Classical Music, which places him as a true heir of the trends of composers headed by such people as Max Steiner, Alfred Newman or Victor Young, who tended a bridge between melodic Classicism and Cinema, building the language of symphonic soundtracks. The Classical background that Bonet has gets united to his special talent to create well defined melodies with an unusual sensitivity , a talent that has been very useful to him when composing soundtracks for TV and for infomercials.

This is a precious collection of melodic instrumental pieces played with piano by Jose Bonet. "Entre ayer y hoy" clearly proves that we are dealing with an experienced musician with excellent skills, not only as a performer but also in the creative arena. The record, entirely composed by him, is very near to the kindest side of Classical Music, with New Instrumental Music touches, and almost always full of melodic romanticism. A certain nostalgic air is present in most of the themes, although there are others with merry, festive passages. All the pieces are a clear sample of the talent of the artist. "Notas de Otonio" has a very special emotional warmth. "Isabel" has an incomparable magic. "Atrezzo barbaro" is most remarkable because of its great strength. Jose Bonet is one of those artists that know how to take us into musical landscapes full of feelings. Of an impeccable make, this is a release that will surely be liked by a wide range of listeners.

Pianist Jose Bonet has composed in this CD-single "Tras los cristales", a fine work that can be labelled within the New Instrumental Music. There also are Classical traits. The seven pieces are romantic, in a mood more melancholy than merry. Some passages have certain mystery traits. The expressivity that the artist achieves with the piano is remarkable indeed, without the help of any other instruments. Beautiful melodies, perfectly intertwined, follow one another without ups and downs, in a work that Bonet's followers will no doubt appreciate. Bonet's style shows his peculiar personal technique.
