Fusing neoclassical and electro music, pianist Nils Frahm has been taking us on a musical odyssey since the mid-2000s, both soaring and danceable.
In doing so, he paved the way for a whole generation of hybridization artists and became the object of a rare fervor, both from his bets, from the critics and the general public.
Creator of Piano Day and adept at improvisation, the German virtuoso evolves on stage between keyboards, instruments (percussion, glass harmonica...) and machines to deliver compositions of vibrant elegance, like the tracks on Music for Animals, a pure ambient opus released in 2022.
In the den of the Philharmonie de Paris, at the controls of an impressive sound vessel, the forty-year-old unfolds his sophisticated spells, between new releases from the album Day and a review of the classics. A flawless performance.
Filmed on March 21, 2024 at the Philharmonie de Paris, and presented via RTÉ's innovative content agreement with ARTE, the European culture TV channel.
