Joep Beving famously recorded an album on an old upright in his kitchen, streamed it for fun and is now one of the most listened to pianists in the world. Pronounced “Yoop”, the Dutch musician’s introspective miniatures have drawn millions into his melancholic, deeply soulful world. His work –from Solipsism in 2015 to Henosis in 2019 – is now ranked alongside Nils Frahm and Max Richter. Beautiful in-ear listening but amazing live: to see this long-bearded, wild-haired, towering figure, caressing delicate melodies out of his humble piano is something else.
