O’s Notes: Multi-instrumentalist, composer Ben Bierman plays nine originals on Songs For Aunt Mary, a dedication to his late aunt. It is mostly solo piano ballads like “Ode To Suzie”. They all make a reflective backdrop suitable for background in many encounters, dining, or just relaxing. It’s a mix of jazz, blues and Latin themes.
