Info for Solo

Nils Frahm hat den Piano Day ins Leben gerufen und ihn gleich mit der Veröffentlichung seines neuen Albums solo gefeiert. Dieses stellt er aktuell zum Sonderpreis in 96 KHz, 24bit auf HighResAudio.com Verfügung.

Ein Klavier hat 88 Tasten und deshalb hat der deutsche Musiker und Komponist den 88. Tag des Jahres, was meistens der 29. März ist, erwählt und ihn zum Piano Day erklärt.

Der Wahlberliner hat solo auf dem Vorgängermodell, der Klavins M370, eingespielt und möchte David Klavins dabei unterstützen, seinen Traum zu verwirklichen und ein 4,5 Meter hohes Klavier, das gigantische Klänge erzeugen wird, zu bauen. Deshalb will Frahm alles, was er mit solo verdient, in dieses Projekt investieren. Für den Bau sind zwei Jahre angesetzt. Am Ende soll ein Festival am Piano Day 2017 stattfinden.

Nils Frahm
was born in 1982 and from a very young age, he really enjoyed piano lessons, amongst others those given by Nahum Brodski, one of Tchaikowsky ́s last pupils. In his early days he also discovered Keith Jarrett ́s epochal improvisational music and the boundary-pushing musical worlds of the exceptional label ECM. Classical and jazz music have since become equal sources of inspiration for the pianist, alongside minimalist music and pop.

Nils Frahm had an early introduction to music. During his childhood he was taught to play piano. It was through this that Nils began to immerse himself in the styles of the classical pianists before him as well as contemporary composers.

Today Nils Frahm works as an accomplished composer and producer from his Berlin-based Durton Studio. His unconventional approach to an age-old instrument, played contemplatively and intimately, has won him many fans around the world. For a musician this early in his career, Frahm displays an incredibly developed sense of control and restraint in his work, catching the ear of many fans.

As the recognition continues to grow for his previous solo piano works 'Wintermusik' (2009) and ‘The Bells’ (2009), 2011 saw the release of his critically acclaimed record 'Felt' on Erased Tapes Records. The album was followed by the solo synthesiser EP 'Juno' and 'Screws' (2012) – a birthday gift to his fans he recorded while recovering from a thumb injury. Nils released his follow up to Juno titled 'Juno Reworked' (2013) with guest reworks by Luke Abbott and Clark.

Nils returned with his new album 'Spaces' in 2013, expressing his love for experimentation and answering the call from his fans for a record that truly reflects what they have witnessed during his concerts.

In 2013 Nils Frahm released his first music book, entitled 'Sheets Eins'. Nils is currently on his worldwide 'Spaces Tour 2014'.

This album contains no booklet.
