- Filmed in Atlanta, Georgia on top of Stone Mountain, "Open Spaces" is the title track to my 8th album (2013 Best Piano Album Nominee, ZMR). It is all about "exploring wide open spaces" in life, faith, love, grace, truth, forgiveness, generosity, music and more. This track features four acclaimed guest artists, including two Grammy winners (Eugene Friesen - Cello, and Jeff Haynes - Percussion) and the first chair French horn from the Boston Pops Symphony (Gus Sebring). The inspiration is from Psalm 119:41-48 (The Message) and the words "Let your love, God, shape my life...And I'll stride freely through wide open spaces as I look for your truth and your wisdom..."

How gorgeous a song that God has sent us! This is what you hear when the angels take you to Heaven!
Dear Anthony, I am so glad this song brings you beauty and joy! Thank you for your comments, and may the Lord bless you with His peace and hope today, Stanton
Thank YOU Mr. Lanier! And may God bless you keep your light shining for a long time to come! P.S., I also think this is what the angels listen to on their coffee break!
Spring is budding with new life - use "Open Spaces" on top of Stone Mountain to lift your spirit!
Very Nice. so enjoyable. I will put this right beside Awaken the Dawn.
If only the world could be like you play, it would be perfect.
We definitely live in an imperfect world but I am thankful God has allowed me to provide this music to make it more peaceful. Thank you for listening!
As a Christian and a pianist, it has been a real pleasure to discover your music.
Thank you Craig! Blessings to you!
I can relate. I used to play the piano as a child, and feel it is time for me to pick it up again
I love the addition of the horn. Makes me think of Aslam the lion
So glad you enjoy the French horn part, and I love the symbolism this makes you think of. When melodies and harmonies and instruments work together it reminds me how God is authoring our life and story in many ways, some of which we can see and hear. Blessings to you! - Stanton
Just launched! Hoping the new title track music video brings you peace and rest today. Enjoy! buff.ly/1x0IeKw #OpenSpaces

I discovered your music on the cable channel Soundscapes and have been hooked ever since.
Thank you for listening and watching!
8/14/2022 @ 1:07am ... 6 years later, I too heard it on soundscapes..
Soundscape music choice on TV is really the best to just hear the soothing music where thank goodness I regonized on what this song is called on my phone where for now on when things are going really bad, I will listen to this and other parts of that channel. Sweet sound!

I love your piano music. Especally since it is inspired by scripture!
Thank you Carole! May you feel the joy and peace of God this Easter weekend. Blessings!

This is one of the most beautiful music pieces for Spring time:)!! This song inspires hope and lifts me out of sadness.
Mr. Lanier,
I have enjoyed your music for over two years and I never tire from listening... pure peaceful listening. Are you coming out with anything new?
Thank you Bradley! I am so glad you enjoy my music. My newest album, "Climb to the Sky" released last fall and I am always in the studio working on new pieces. If you haven't yet listened to my latest album, you can find it available here: www.stantonlanier.com/stantons-discography/
Exhale. Peace. Thank you.
Ahh, Nimo. Yes, this is what I hope to convey through my composing, recordings, and performance. I am so glad this peace came through to you. Grace and peace, Stanton
That's so beautiful and one feels at peace. Thank you! God bless.
Mrudul, so glad you enjoyed this and it brought you some beauty and peace. You're welcome, and God's blessings to you too!

Dear Michael and Brenda, thank you so much for watching and listening, and I am grateful this song and video are a blessing to you! Grace and Peace, Stanton
Thank you Stanton for your music. I've been listening to this since I get to know it through Les Mills Body Balance. Along with your other creation, God created you to bring peace, healing to us.
Thank you, +Mary, for this kind message. I do appreciate the support of my Les Mills Body Balance friends, and I am thankful to know my music has brought you peace and healing!

Thank you Veda, I am grateful my music is a blessing to you!
I found the one of tour music from th body balance music trax for savasana and since then I fall in love with all your piano song. Really makes me feel relax and peace.
This is good to hear. So glad you can find peace and relaxation through the music. Be blessed, Stanton.
This music closes my Body Flow class, glad I found it. The setting is gorgeous.
Thank you Marilyn! I am glad you discovered my music too, and am grateful for it being used for relaxation in your class. Blessings to you! Stanton
I also discovered this song through Body Flow! I found it deeply moving. It filled me with peace and also sadness....and somehow I could not get enough of it. Weird mix of feelings. All the best to you.
more than wonderful music. bless you .
Thank you, and many blessings to you.
Wishing a Healthy & Happy New Year 2017 !
Thank you! Blessings to you!
my favorites are Awaken the Dawn, but Taken by a Cloud is a masterpiece.
Thank you +Bradley, for these kind words. I am glad you enjoy these melodies.
yes i love this to they use it in my body balance class :)
Thank you for your wonderful, soul-nourishing music. I discovered it on DirecTV's New Age and Soundscapes music channels (where my favs include Karen Marie Garrett, Kevin Kern, and Kathryn Kaye). But a great additional blessing for me is that you draw your inspiration from a deep well of Christian spirituality. In the Open Spaces video, you look disconcertingly like Arthur C. Clarke. I loved his science fiction and he was a huge influence on me when I was young. Fortunately one other English writer was an even greater influence: C.S. Lewis. Anyway, thank you for your blessed music.
Dear @MarkdotBirdwolf, you are welcome, and I am grateful my music is such a blessing to you. I wasn't aware of this resemblance, but I have been very inspired by C.S. Lewis as well. The Lord inspired me to compose Scripture inspired piano and instrumental music twenty-three years ago. My very first composition was titled "Grace and Truth" from John 1:14, and now there are about 170 works. "Open Spaces" is special to me because the music is expressing the wonder and adventure of walking with God found in Psalm 119:45, "And I’ll stride freely through wide open spaces as I look for your truth and your wisdom..." Wishing you God's grace, peace, and joy today! - Stanton
Love this Stanton ... fantastic production and composing. I love the tonal change around 2:10 - creative. Your guest musicians add so much as well. French horn is my favorite of all. Bravo.
+Fred McKinnon Thanks so much Fred, I remembered reading this and so appreciate your encouraging words, and I meant to reply then. Blessings to you in 2016!
Im so amazed at your music always. God has truly blessed you he allows your music snd videos to touch others. May God grant you and your family the same peace and joy that your music provides . Kudos again.

Dear Cindy, you are welcome, and thank you so much for sharing your comments and story about "Open Spaces" helping you calm your stress and anxiety. I am grateful and must give God the credit for inspiring this piece from Psalm 119:45, and for helping you experience His peace. Blessings to you as well, Stanton
Thank you for sharing that Cindy, please just know that you are not alone. I deal with these anxieties and panic attacks daily and I've found that life is still wonderful and worth living...I wish you peace of mind and body and the best of luck because you've put yourself through things that are imagined but that God will help you out of. Please believe this.
God bless you too, Cindy! Please know that God loves you even more than you think.

Hi!
Are there any tutorials for this song because I just can't stop listening to it and would love to learn it on piano!
Hello! There is PDF sheet music on the website, but not a tutorial at this point. "Open Spaces" is intermediate level, as is most all of my music. This would be in the medium to advanced range, so if you have been playing a few years, you can learn it. Thanks for your support! Stanton
Ok, thank you!

Great melody.
Nice nature. Can you say location that place. Thank you!
Thank you for watching and listening, and I am so glad you enjoyed this melody. This is on top of a large granite rock near Atlanta, Georgia called Stone Mountain. The view and the breeze were beautiful to accompany me playing Open Spaces. God's blessings to you, Stanton
@StantonLanier Thank you.
God bless you and love ones.
😁😁
Didn't a band revise this tune.? .. An alternative group of some sort...? .. It sounds awfully familiar.
Hi, I hope you enjoyed this song and music video. I don't know of any band who revised my original melody which I composed and copyrighted in the 2012-2013 time frame for my album "Open Spaces." Sometimes music can sound familiar, and hopefully this is all that you have heard. Wishing you all the best in life and music! Stanton
