OUT THERE, RIGHT HERE _ CD face.png

I’m Shirley Cason — pianist, keyboardist, and composer. The albums I’ve recorded over the years are more than relaxing music… they’re chapters of my journey. Some were created during moments of joy. Others were born from grief, healing, and hope. Each melody tells a story. Maybe even one you’ve lived too. I invite you to listen, reflect, and simply be here.

A promotional image celebrating Shirley Cason’s Relaxing Piano Music album reaching the Top 10 in Amazon’s New Age Instrumental Music category. The graphic is split into two panels: The left side shows a screenshot of the Amazon chart with Shirley’s album ranked at #10, including a 4.5-star rating from 57 reviews. The right side features the Relaxing Piano Music album cover, with a grand piano in a glowing blue cityscape and an orange #10 badge for emphasis. Text at the bottom reads: “Up there with 3 of George Winston’s albums!” The date “June 19, 2025” appears clearly at the top.
The image is a circular badge featuring a soft blue background with darker blue outlines and text. At the top, the words “TOP 10” are written in bold, uppercase serif font. In the center, there’s a minimalist illustration of a grand piano. Across the bottom of the badge is a white ribbon banner with the word “AMAZON” in bold blue letters. The design conveys a sense of recognition and achievement, styled with a calm, elegant aesthetic that complements Shirley Cason’s relaxing piano music brand.

About Shirley

Shirley Cason relaxing piano music composer biography photo

I write songs from the heart, inspired by life's most personal moments—whether they bring tears or joy. As Robert Frost said, "No tears or surprise in the writer, no tears or surprise in the reader." I create music that touches me deeply, hoping it touches you the same way.

My albums reflect the balance of life, with moments of light and tenderness woven throughout. Though I don’t sing on my albums, (yet!), my songs often begin with heartfelt lyrics that you can find on each album page.

Thank you for listening. I hope my music becomes a part of your own story.

​

 ❤️ Love & Music, Shirley   ​

🎵  A Thousand Years   🎵

A holiday song written by Janis Ian and Russ Taff, originally featured on one of Janis’s albums.


Janis Ian, a Multiple GRAMMY® Award-winning artist known for her poetic songwriting since the 1970s, has long been admired by Shirley Cason.


As a heartfelt tribute, Shirley created a new keyboard arrangement of A Thousand Years — layering her own instrumentation beneath Janis Ian’s original vocals and guitar, while honoring the timeless essence of Janis’s signature sound.

​

When Shirley shared the arrangement with Janis, she was so touched that she released it as an official single.
On her website, Janis even referred to Shirley as a “longtime friend” — a heartfelt gesture that meant the world to her.
