Yann Tiersen - Kerber (Piano Solo) | complete / #Coversart
Perfect timing - it seems that the official Yann Tiersen album - Kerber is coming out today, it so happened that having bought a new songbook from one of my favorite composers exactly a month ago - I finally recorded all these wonderful works. After listening to the already released singles (turned out to be extremely electronic-based, love it!, and apparently, the felted piano underwent massive processing), I decided to take a different, minimalistic path - and recorded all the pieces from Kerber with the sound of the usual upright piano, although I chose not the most trivial instrument for performance - Nord Grand. After the recording, I added some automated effects, you will hear that. All the pieces were played live, one after the other - and I think it will be great if you take the time to listen to the entire recording, from beginning to end.

From the press release:
Named after a chapel in a small village on the island of Ushant, Kerber marks a new chapter in Tiersen’s career. A chapter still true to Tiersen’s nuanced and subtle approach but one that sets out with his most overtly electronic material to date. Beautifully textured, highly immersive, and thoughtfully constructed, Tiersen creates an electronic world, providing an environment in which the piano source exists.
A sense of place has often been a central theme in Tiersen’s work and here that is no different. Each track is tied to a place mapping out the immediate landscape that surrounds Tiersen’s home, linking back to his thoughts on the possibilities of the infinite smallness.
“I think there is a similarity between the infinite big and the infinite smallness of everything,” says Yann Tiersen. “It's the same experiment looking through a microscope as it is a telescope.”
