Imagination's Light is the seventh studio album (ninth album overall) from American new-age pianist Kevin Kern. As with his preceding albums, it is an album of instrumental tunes, with the addition of a cover version of "Fields of Gold" by Sting. The album, a reminiscence of Kern's childhood playing piano in a darkened room lit by the fireplace, was released on July 19, 2005.[1]
Before creating this album, Kern was invited to become a Steinway Artist, so for this album he played a Steinway concert grand piano made in Hamburg, Germany. An accompanying piano songbook was released in 2008 containing the ten compositions by Kern, written for the intermediate piano student.[2]
In the accompanying booklet, Kevin Kern writes that "Keepers of the Flame" on an ancient Gregorian chant called "Pange Lingua". It is dedicated to Pope John Paul II.
All compositions by Kevin Kern except track 5, written by Sting.
