Piano Day mit SOFI PAEZ und YANA

In the organizer's words:

On Friday, March 28, 2025, the Kulturhaus Schwanen will be transformed into a sound space for all lovers of the piano and electronic-atmospheric music. Piano Day - a global day of action celebrating the magic of this instrument - is coming to Waiblingen with SOFI PAEZ and YANA!

Neo-classical music with electronic influences
Ólafur Arnalds' OPIA Community presents an evening in which electronic and modern classical music merge in fascinating harmony. Experience a night full of neo-classical music, captivating melodies and experimental sounds. The talented pianists will take to the stage. Let the virtuosity of the two young pianists SOFI PAEZ and YANA whisk you away into the world of 88 keys.

Four special artists from Ólafur Arnalds' OPIA community
SOFI PAEZ: Berlin-based pianist, singer and composer SOFI PAEZ presents her debut album "SILENT STORIES", an enchanting blend of neo-classical and intimate, soulful sounds. She enchants her audience with her unique style and her extraordinary story (from Costa Rica to Berlin).

YANA: Polish pianist and composer YANA (Joanna Bieńkowska) takes listeners on an emotional journey with her second solo album "Daydreamer". Her music, a fusion of classical instrumentation and electronic elements, reflects the highs and lows of human existence.

FEJKÁ & MEMUM - an atmospheric symbiosis of two sound worlds between ambient and electronica. Their shared musical language is not only a close friendship, it also recently led to the founding of their joint label Coexist.

Exclusively for OPIA and Piano Day, solo works by both artists meet new, joint compositions in a hybrid live performance: Textures of piano and synthesizer merge with warm pads and gently pulsating electronica.

What is behind the "Piano Day"?

Piano Day, created by German composer and neo-classical pianist Nils Frahm, always takes place on the 88th day of the year - a tribute to the 88 keys of a piano. Frahm wanted to create a platform to pay tribute to the piano and the people who surround it: the artists, the composers, the piano makers and, of course, the audience.
