Ross Clarke For the last twelve years Ross Clarke has been playing solo piano to provide restful background music. The response to this music has been so positive that I decided to make it my specialty and to expand my repertoire to cover a multiplicity of tastes. I now have around
400 pieces that I can play without the aid of sheet music.
Thus there is usually something for everyone.
