Instrumental Piano Music?

I really enjoy listening to someone play the piano.

I find it relaxing, assuming they aren’t singing, which I find distracting while trying to work.

Can you folks suggest some good piano music? (I’m not against “Classical” music, but would like more modern stuff as well. Both/and.)
