NFOP Presents: Nils Frahm “Recording Tour”

11 Mar 2013 — Henning Lahmann

Beyond proud to present the upcoming Germany tour of one of our favourite contemporary composers, Berlin-based pianist Nils Frahm, starting this coming Saturday in Rostock. Below, you may watch a short video of him explaining the concept of this "Recording Tour" (which basically means, you guessed it, setting up a proper recording session on stage). On top of that, check out Frahm's latest release on Erased Tapes, the wonderfully restrained and low-key Screws, which was recorded while recovering from a broken thumb (an incident obviously incredibly unfortunate for a pianist), nine songs played with nine fingers. Besides still being available as a free download, you may also hand in your own rework or reinterpretation of one of the pieces – go here for more details.
