Yann Tiersen

Intimate piano and dynamic electronics

  • Elektronische pop
  • Neo-klassiek
  • Piano

Multi-instrumentalist Yann Tiersen is difficult to categorize musically. His work shows similarities to the neoclassical movement, but he himself attaches little importance to genre boundaries — according to him, there is no division between classical and pop. The Frenchman gained international recognition with the soundtrack he composed for the film classic Amélie and has since developed into a composer with a distinct and recognizable style. Tonight, Tiersen presents his latest project in an intimate solo concert: Rathlin From A Distance | The Liquid Hour — an album where the musical worlds of classical piano music and psychedelic electronic music converge.
