About This Recording

Composed and performed by Paul Lorenz, As Close As It Gets is a solo piano piece built on a delicate melodic line that balances tenderness with quiet melancholy. The performance avoids overstatement — each phrase breathes, creating space for the listener (and the viewer) to feel. Lorenz, an internationally recognised composer with over 500 million streams and three decades of experience working with Universal Music, Sony Music, Warner and Abbey Road Studios, brings a depth of musicianship that elevates this piece beyond conventional stock piano music. Mastered to broadcast standard at 44.1 kHz WAV quality, the recording is ready for professional film, television and digital media production.
