About the Artist
Robin Meloy Goldsby's solo piano music speaks in a voice that is gentle and clear. Her compositions weave threads and colors that are both delicate and confident; a rich tapestry sewn by a pianist with an exquisite touch. Robin Spielberg, producer and pianist Robin Meloy Goldsby composes and performs beautiful piano music. Fans describe her melodies as peaceful, inspirational, and magical. Ms. Goldsby plays music that enhances the quiet and reflective moments of life; taking the listener on a charming musical voyage into a sea of quiet emotion and gentle strength. Robin grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and attended Chatham College before moving to New York City in 1980. She performed for over ten years in many of New York City's leading hotels. Her credits include The Grand Hyatt, The Plaza, The Pierre, The Waldorf Astoria , and The Sheraton Centre. Robin is known for her solo piano performances at New York's Marriott Marquis Hotel where she played the 1985 grand opening and spent the next seven years cultivating her skills and captivating diverse audiences with her unique style. Ms. Goldsby also served as the musical director of the critically acclaimed international tour of Sesame Street Live with Luis and Gordon. In 1994, Goldsby released her solo recording debut of standards and popular classics, Somewhere In Time. Goldsby's arrangements, honed over the years during her tenure as a hotel pianist in New York are the most beautiful and unique arrangements of these songs I’ve ever heard according to producer/pianist Robin Spielberg. Shortly after the release of Somewhere in Time, Goldsby moved to Cologne, Germany. Over the course of several years, Goldsby composed and perfected her finest work to date, Twilight. When it came time to record the work, Goldsby called on Robin Spielberg, who not only produced Goldsby's debut release, but who has recorded thirteen albums of her own piano music, selling over 400,000 units in the USA. Twilight was recorded in Cologne, Germany at Topaz Studios. Twilight contains fifteen original compositions for solo piano, inspired by many touching life-experiences: Robin Goldsby's journey to Europe ("One Woman's Journey"), the birth of her daughter ("The Light In Julia's Eyes"), summers spent on an island ("Nantucket Solitude") and dreams, hope and love ("Following Your Light," "When Stars Dance," "Miss You Most of All"). The winning team of Spielberg and Goldsby promises to make this newest release an enduring acoustic piano classic. Ms. Goldsby performs regularly at Schlosshotel Lerbach, a beautiful castle cradled in the hills of Bergisch Gladbach, Germany. She can be heard in the main hall of the castle every Friday and Saturday evening between seven and nine, playing the cocktail hour for Restaurant Dieter Müller, a Michelin three-star restaurant located on the premises. On the literary front, Piano Girl (Backbeat Books) Goldsby’s first book, hit the bookstands in June, 2005. With the subtitle, "Lessons in Life, Music, and the Perfect Blue Hawaiian," the book is a collection of autobiographical short stories–some funny, some poignant–that explore the life of a working musician. A giddy mixture of droll hilarity and pathos, Piano Girl is an entertaining and enlightening memoir of music and life as a cocktail pianist. The book provides a rare glimpse into the comedies, tragedies, and mundane miracles witnessed from the business side of the keyboard.

Product Description
The sun hides in shadows and the changing light paints a sky the color of crushed rose petals on tea-stained linen. I wish my whole life could be this color. Night falls. The approaching star dance will, with luck, follow me into the deep folds of darkness and grace my dreams with its playful arabesque . . .

Twilight is Robin Meloy Goldsby's second solo piano recording. Goldsby performs fourteen original piano compositions with a gentle touch, setting the mood for reflection and meditation, a quiet evening at home, or a romantic dinner. Although Twilight is perfect atmosphere music, the songs are beautifully composed–with lilting melodies, serene harmonies, and memorable passages that call for repeated listenings.

Included with the CD is a sixteen page two-language booklet (English-German) with Goldsby's poetic musings and stories about her compositions, such as this passage describing the piece One Woman's Journey: Listen to the music, read the booklet, and be rewarded with an acoustic voyage into Goldsby's world–a place where graceful solo piano accompanies a symphony of emotions. Twilight was produced by Robin Spielberg, and recorded by Reinhard Kobialka at Topaz Audio Studios in Cologne, Germany.
