PianonoiseRadio
Listen to an hour of piano or organ music from the pianonoise archives. All from the fingers of Michael Hammer, webmaestro, concert pianist and organist.

Revel in all kinds of beautiful, and unusual, selections for piano and organ appropriate to December. Some are specifically Christmas, or Advent related, some are not (but sound like it if you are in the mood), some are just music to warm your bones and light your path at this cold and dark time of year. Peace be unto you...and joy...and melancholy...and hope...and a meaningful December!
