Piano

Description

"There's something special about sitting there, just me, the keys, and the silence. No rhythm, no bass. Just raw emotion."At the heart of the euphoria of electronic music, Armin van Buuren has found a space of calm to compose his most authentic music to date. He, who knows better than anyone what makes crowds vibrate, set out to discover what moved him personally. And often, that instrument is the piano.Composed of 15 intimate piano pieces, this album reveals another facet of the world-renowned DJ and producer: more personal, more emotional. First recorded on his Steinway, then arranged into scores with his piano teacher Geronimo, this work is imbued with the vulnerability born from this foray outside his comfort zone: trading the grandeur of main stages for rich piano sonorities that linger in the silence. It is pure, introspective, and just as much as the rhythmic music that has marked his brilliant career: pure Armin van Buuren.
