During the recording sessions for our new collaborative library with James Newton Howard, we were lucky enough to sit down with the iconic composer and chat about his creative philosophy, how he ended up owning his wonderful Steinway Model D, and his approach to theme writing.

An elemental scoring tool, James Newton Howard Piano captures the evocative aura of an iconic Hollywood composer’s personal grand piano: A Steinway Model D. Each and every piano is
unique—this is a beautifully crafted instrument that has been a wellspring of inspiration for James Newton Howard for many years, and its sound is already familiar to film-goers around the world.

Now, with 5 production-ready mixes from Alan Meyerson, this detailed and majestic grand piano can be your muse too.

The intro offer will run until August 7.
