It's different than most of his other stuff, of course. But if you're looking for something easy and refreshing, this is definitely one of them. I listened to parts of it on his greatest hits album, as well as the Broadway show "Movin Out" and was impressed by it. I bought the music book for it and decided to invest in the recording. Definitely a Billy Joel sound, but with a classical feel to it. Great for lazy, balmy spring days.
