Joep Beving, a sensation of the contemporary classical streaming world, returns to his solo piano roots with 'Hermetism' - the Dutch composer/pianist's fourth album for Deutsche Grammophon. Inspired by ancient philosophy, Beving's latest project is an album in search of universal ideas. 'I hope that it will have a comforting and communal effect on listeners,' says the artist. Written during the dark days of the pandemic, in an age of fear and polarisation, 'Hermetism' blends poignant melancholy with an offer of hope, spanning twelve new tracks recorded on Beving's cherished Schimmel piano.
