Davell Crawford — “Let It Be”, The Beatles (arr. Crawford)

Steinway Artist Davell Crawford, the “Prince of New Orleans,” brings a gentle beauty to Lennon/McCartney's "Let It Be," the eternally soothing masterwork first released as a 1970 single by The Beatles. McCartney penned the song following a dream about his mother (who passed away when he was 14) that he had following a tense recording session for The Beatles’ “White Album.” Crawford’s sensitive solo-piano arrangement, performed live at New York City’s Steinway Hall, locates the pathos of the original with added gospel flavoring and virtuosic yet understated playing, a hallmark of his pianism. https://www.steinway.com/   / steinway     / steinwayandsons     / steinwayandsons   #Steinway #Beatles #Steinway #SteinwayandSons #SteinwayHall #DavellCrawford #TheBeatles #LetItBe #LennonMcCartney #PopMusic
