Bio:  Trent was born and raised in Idaho and Bountiful, Utah.  He is a pianist/composer who has always had a deep appreciation for self expression through music. He grew up playing saxophone and piano at an early age while studying his favorite topics:  jazz and learning other instruments.  Trent had a knack for his ear training.  He would hear a song on the radio and later that day sit down on the piano and pick out chords and melodic leads.  He started composing his original works in junior high school and continued his passion of learning “licks” in jazz band throughout high school and college.  After his two year church mission to Norway, he came home and continued his music scholarships and studies.

     Trent Dransfield  was later accepted to Lamont School of Music and attended CU Denver where he studied composition and recording engineering.  He also did advanced studies with Berklee College of Music online while supporting his family in the medical field and running several side businesses.
     In 2005, his Debut Album “Far Away” was released and he immediately earned awards for best piano, track of the month/day, best keyboards all time#3 and made the top 20 all time list for the ambient categories.  He also went on to score for several commercials.  He continues to score for commercials and jingles, while performing his inspirational concerts with his orchestra.  He says his purpose in life is to inspire and uplift others through his talent which he loves to share.  In 2008, he  released the powerful and soothing CD “The Innocence”which has already received incredible reviews!

Reviews: 


“First off, great piano!  Nice job, nice mood, very relaxing.  Thanks for the break from the standard material out there today.”

 - Mega Records

       
“Your compositions say something to us individually at a very deep level. It is hard to say precisely why, but they speak to us so directly and wonderfully. I must admit that all of the pieces are golden. They work quietly to relieve and soothe the anxiety that the abrupt discontinuities of every day living bring. The music makes me spiritually reflective, happy and full of faith."

- Dr. Joel Passey, Ogden, Utah.


“Trent’s music comes straight from his heart!  It touches my spirit in a very personal way and brings me peace.  The combination of melodies and instrumentation are beautiful; each song telling it’s own story.  His music is so pure and full of emotion.  It is simply inspirational!” 

- Michele P,   Idaho Falls, Idaho.


“Awesome work!  Simply incredible and we LOVE it!”

-  KBYU 105.7FM Radio Station

"The Innocence" by Trent Dransfield (Easy Listening Artist from Utah(UT)
POSTED BY: momof5pacs POSTED ON: 02 Dec 2008 07:45 PM
RadioIndy is pleased to present Trent Dransfield with a GrIndie Award for the CD "The Innocence"

“The Innocence” is an awe-inspiring and excellently crafted instrumental easy listening album from pianist/composer Trent Dransfield. With the help of an acoustic guitar, a flute, and and various orchestral string elements, Dransfield has arranged eleven piano-fueled easy listening gems, many of which have great jazz elements incorporated into them. This is great mood music for introspection, meditation, and relaxation as Dransfield's heartfelt, inspirational, and oftentimes spiritual melodies soar off of the ivory. “The Innocence” is well-produced, so the instrumentation sounds clean and absolutely professional. “I Like To Look For Rainbows” introduces the album with a great melodic piano arrangement with an acoustic guitar and cello accompaniment. It is composed with such inspiration and spirituality that it feels like a church service hymn. “On a Golden Springtime” has a Brubeck-esque piano arrangement with great jazz elements and a light string backing. Overall, “The Innocence” is an excellent album with great, heartfelt arrangements from an extremely talented pianist and composer. Do yourself a favor and pick up what is easily one of the best easy listening albums of the year.-Chris & the RadioIndy.com Review Team
