Album insights
Joep Beving, known for his contemporary classical streaming success, returns solo to the piano with "Hermetism," his new solo piano album exploring the essence in music. Inspired by ancient philosophy, Beving's fourth album is set to be released on April 8, 2022, by Deutsche Grammophon. He seeks beauty through his love for Paris and deep philosophical musings, aiming for his music to offer solace and connection. Drawing from a sense of melancholy, Beving's hope is to inspire hope with the twelve pieces he plays on his cherished Schimmel piano. Despite the pandemic chaos, Hermetism represents his personal antidote, attempting to resonate with listeners on a profound level. Amassing over half a billion streams, Beving's viral debut success in 2015 now sees him topping the charts on streaming platforms, with sold-out concerts worldwide.
