- David August - Solo Piano: David August
About the show
The Italian-German electronic composer performs his intimate and restrained new solo piano album, HYMNS.
Turning inward, this is music that recalls light rather than darkness – quiet but intense, restrained yet emotionally direct. It unfolds as a sequence of prepared-piano improvisations shaped by live processing, silence and soundscapes.
This is a deeply personal body of work that strips away the vast electronic architectures he’s best known for and narrows the focus to something direct and intimate. Written and recorded in 2021 through periods of isolation and improvisation, HYMNS marks a conscious return to August’s origins: the instrument that shaped his earliest musical language, the piano.
Featuring
David August
Still barely in his mid twenties, the Diynamic man boasts a CV most could only dream of, having played some of the world's finest clubs since his late teens whilst also releasing 'Times', his acclaimed debut LP, in 2013. Deservedly earning comparisons with the equally prodigiously talented likes of Nicolas Jaar and James Blake, August is just as capable of stunning a crowd with gorgeous sounds as he is of keeping them moving all night long.
