Margaret's debut, 'There's Always Glimmer,' was a lyrical wonder, but when an illness on tour left her unable to sing, she made her ambient album 'Mia Gargaret' which revealed a keen intuition for arrangement and composition not fully shown on 'There's Always Glimmer's lyrical songs. 'Romantic Piano', too, is almost totally without words. "Writing instrumental music, in general, is a much more joyful process than I find in lyrical songwriting," she says. "The process ultimately effects my songwriting."
And while Margaret has more songwriterly material on the way, 'Romantic Piano' solidifies her as a compositional force. "I wanted to make music that was useful," says Margaret, vastly understating the power of the record. 'Romantic Piano' is curious, calming, patient and incredibly moving - but it doesn't overstay its welcome for more than a second.
