Piano Music, or Help! I Started Listening to a New Genre(s?)

I don't remember exactly how it came about. I've been using Pandora a lot lately. I made a station where I tagged artists from basically every genre just to see what an "everything" playlist would sound like. A few hours into the station suddenly a lovely song comes on by a pianist named Michael Dulin. It was so beautiful I immediately tagged Dulin in a new station so that I could listen to it. After an hour of just blissful lounge music I Googled best modern pianists and the name Marc-Andre Hamelin is #1 on some list so I made a station of him and it's a completely different style. Still just a solo piano player but in a faster, more complex/technical style. More like a jazzy film score as opposed to Dulin's style which is akin to the kind of stuff you hear playing in a fancy department store. Maybe that was just the songs I've heard so far and I'm generalizing prematurely. Both styles are very good though. So yeah, if there's anybody who's into the solo pianist genre(s) please educate me a little bit on the different styles and some of your favorites.
