NesbittMusic.com is a music site that has been represented by Culture.ca as a “showcase of instrumental music, in many cases inspired by the Canadian landscape, from this popular composer-pianist.”
When so many people told Deane Nesbitt, Jr. his music helped them relax, Deane consulted an authority on stress. Today his music is the only music ever endorsed by the foremost name in stress, the Hans Selye Foundation, whose founders include Buckminster Fuller, Marshall McLuhan, Richard Earle and Alvin Toffler.
Deane was simply trying to compose first-class orchestral music. |

| Everywhere From Here |
Like the score of a heroic film yet to be produced, the music of Everywhere from Here ranges from being quiet and haunting to grand and inspiring. As the title implies, this music will take you anywhere you want to go. Enhanced by the intuitive arrangements of Brian Gagnon, this layered, orchestral music maintains the full endorsement of the Hans Selye Foundation and the Canadian Institute of Stress and every track on this disc is memorable.

This was the first CD with every track featuring a composition of Deane’s and work began after Deane’s composition, All That I Love, caught the attention of executive producer, Gene Evans. This was also the first CD to obtain the endorsement of the Hans Selye Foundation and the Canadian Institute of Stress, because of its beneficial qualities. With its varied arrangements by David Nelson, this CD was first played extensively by Calgary’s AM 1060/CKMX, which also became an endorser of the music.

| Ocean Rain |
This was Deane's first album to contain some of his own compositions. According to Montrealer, Bruce Croll, Deane plays grand piano, honky-tonk polyphonic synthesizer and organ (put through an echo chamber to simulate the sound of strings) " with a unique style and unparalleled sensitivity… The whole is a varied recording of sweeping range from piano solo to electronic orchestra, tremendously entertaining and styled for ears which have long wondered to where this kind of music had vanished.”

| On the Black Keys and By Ear |
Deane started his musical career by playing piano for the visually impaired. What grew from those performances was his very first vinyl album, ON THE BLACK KEYS AND BY EAR, which was produced in 1978 to raise money for the blind. A review of the disc by Rob Montgomery in The Gazette, Montreal, stated: “Playing by ear as it should be… Nesbitt is obviously a keen judge of sound… he comes off as a model of ear playing.”
