Good piano music?

I do like the Piano, but don't have a whole lot of piano music. Piano music is relaxing, which can be nice after all of the trouble my computer gives me 😛. What are some good piano songs? I'm talking Piano only, no voices or anything (don't say norah jones :barf🙂. Nothing too long either please.

One i have that i like is Living in the Country by George Winston
 
i enjoy jim brickman and david lanz's stuff. i don't think i've heard living int he country but i like winston's canon arrangement.
 
Actually 95% of piano stuff i have is VGM, and i enjoy it a lot. I'm still really impressed with the blindfolded pianist, has he done anything new lately?

Usually before i get any music i sample it, but it's hard to find samples of all this classical piano stuff, heh.
 
Any romantic or later piano concertos should be great (personal favorite is Tchaikovsky's). Not great for relaxing, though. I would agree that some Chopin would be nice, but Liszt and Brahms and Schubert also wrote some great piano pieces that are nice relaxing pieces.
 
"windham hill collection" (cd album) has a pretty good collection of piano music...somewhat of a newage twist 🙂

Indeed, he might just be my favourite. His first Piano Concerto is great aswell! It's actually very great, but it's not piao music, there's a piano in it, but an orchestra aswell.
