Dulin’s style is flowing and purposeful and it always has
been on all of his releases. He is an extremely talented pianist that is adept
at translating his feelings through the ivory keys.
Each track focuses on an enduring love and the beauty and
passion that it can bring in a couple’s life. Relationships are a work in
progress and too many people run away at the onset of difficulties. This is a
testament to his commitment to marriage and his wife.
“Beloved” is the most poignant and meaningful to the
artist and as a listener I can understand why. Its sheer beauty and
magnificence transcends all barriers and time becomes merely a concept to
ponder.
“Devotion” has a title alone that supports the meaning of
holy matrimony. It is the perfect follow up to “Beloved.” It goes hand in hand
with the meaning and purpose of this recording.
The album closer “Rhapsody” exudes clarity and beauty
with a definite accent on the different colors a musician such as Dulin can
create within the music. The pace creates joy and peace but it maintains an
energy and buoyancy that closes out the album with strength and definition.
Michael Dulin has produced a brilliant palette of
tasteful instrumentals that brings one instrument to the forefront without a
single distraction. The only focus is the piano and I found it very enjoyable
and quite amazing how one remarkable instrument can convey so many emotions and
a lifetime of love and devotion.
