At last... Piano man Nils out Frahm hibernation

Composer on tour again...and heading to Northern Ireland

live shows. Recorded over a period of two years the album captured live performances from various of his concerts worldwide.

In 2015 Nils launched Piano Day, an official global body created by Nils and his closest friends to celebrate the piano via various innovative, pianorelated projects around the world. The first project revealed by the Piano Day team was the building of the world’s tallest piano: the Klavins 450. It was on the slightly smaller version built by piano inventor David Klavins that Nils recorded eight improvised piano motifs in one sitting, which formed his Solo album – presented to the world on the first Piano Day.

And after spending much of 2017 in hibernation in preparation for a busy period ahead, Nils will commence 2018 with his first live performances since 2015, and will embark on the beginning of a long worldwide tour entitled All Melody.

Nils Frahm plays the Mandela Hall on Tuesday, February 27, and £22.50 tickets are available from Ticketmaster.
