[1] Born in New York City, Brian grew up in Palo Alto, California. He began piano at age 8. His experience as a stage actor and performer in numerous plays and musical theatre productions (at Theatreworks and the Palo Alto Children’s Theatre), as well as his four years of singing madrigals in an a cappella group, continue to inform his creative work. He studied music composition at Hampshire College and studied jazz piano with Art Lande.
Brian Kelly is winner of the Keyboard Magazine Soundpage Award for his original composition “Todd Pond”. In 2005 he released his debut album of piano instrumentals, Pools of Light, on the Skylight Music label. The album charted #1 for two months on modern instrumental radio in North America. Brian was nominated for the NAR (New Age Reporter) Lifestyle Music Artist of the Year award. In 2006 he published Pools of Light: the Solo Piano Songbook, a collection of solo piano arrangements of 11 tracks from his Pools of Light CD. In 2008 Brian released Afterplay, his second CD of piano-based instrumental music.
