As Robert Frost wrote,
“No tears in the writer. . .
No tears in the reader"
If a song touches my heart while I’m creating it, I trust it will reach yours when you listen.
While I don’t sing on my albums — at least not yet — many of my songs begin with lyrics I’ve written from the heart.
I hope my music becomes part of your own story.
Thank you for listening.
Love & Peace, Shirley ❤️~:~
Hi, I’m Shirley Cason, a Pianist - Keyboardist, Composer and Recording artist. I’ve recorded 13 albums of peaceful instrumental music, and received three Grammy® recognition certificates over the years.
My Relaxing Piano Music album has remained on Amazon’s Top 100 New Age Instrumental Music charts every month for the past 4 years, connecting listeners seeking inner peace through music.
Now I’m beginning a new journey — creating live performance videos from my studio to share these songs with you in a more personal way.
Thank you for being here. I hope the music brings a little more peace into your day.

cover song by Shirley Cason
“A Thousand Years
Grammy®-winning songwriter - Janis Ian”
A special music arrangement by Shirley Cason
A THOUSAND YEARS : written by Janis Ian and Russ Taff, A Thousand Years is a song of quiet emotions and lasting warmth.
Shirley created the keyboard music arrangement for this recording, layering her instrumentation beneath Janis Ian’s original vocals and guitar track with care and restraint, honoring the song’s emotional core and timeless character.
After hearing the arrangement, Janis was so moved that she chose to release it as an official single on her own record label.
My Peaceful World - album
I’m deeply honored that Best Seller New York Times prolific author Deepak Chopra MD, featured My Peaceful World as one of his Spotify album picks. To be recognized by someone whose work has brought peace and healing to so many… I’m forever grateful.

❝ Without a shadow of a doubt one of the best new age instrumental albums I have had the fortunate pleasure to listen to this year… I predict with certainty that Out There, Right Here has to be a huge chart hit for the artist, and is most definitely award worthy. ❞
