Composer, pianist and songwriter BRENDA WARREN brings to her compositions an improvisational approach featuring elements of classical, pop and new age music. Her music creates special moods insinuating an emotive and autobiographical feeling in each piece. AS YEARS GO BY, Brenda's second CD release, showcases her talents as a solo pianist and creative artist.
CHILDHOOD DREAMS was Brenda's debut release from which she received airplay throughout the world. Her music has been featured in several television programs and she has composed the score for three documentaries. The music from As Years Go By and Childhood Dreams is the score for the PBS documentary Edens Lost and Found.
Brenda began playing piano at four years old and at age eight began her musical journey at the Detroit Conservatory of Music. She went on to earn a Bachelor's degree in Music from San Francisco State University. After graduation she perfomed her improvisational piano works throughout the Bay Area. She also co-wrote and produced the original musical comedy BREAKFAST IN MARIN which was nominated for a Cable Car Award for best original musical.
Primary among Brenda's influences are Joni Mitchell, Laura Nyro, Erik Satie and Keith Jarrett. She was profoundly inspired by Keith Jarret's solo piano improvisations on The Koln Concerts. Her music has been called "evocative" "soothing""haunting" and "joyful".

Beautiful songs that convey deep passion for music and life
author: Mara Applebaum/New Age Retailer
On As Years Go By, Warren's sophomore release, she moves through each original piano piece with ease and magnificent skill. Synthesizer and strings back some of these perfomances. The moving music evokes all kinds of emotions and scenarios, with songs titled "Remembering You" "Tea in North Beach" and "Blue Island." "Waterfall" is a fantastic track that makes equal use of silence and sound. Warren's connection with her piano creates beautiful songs that convey deep passion for music and life.
