The Quiet Pianist

Conscious that he didn’t disturb his flat mates at night, German musician Nils Frahm recorded his first album by putting a microphone into his piano and tapping the keys as gently as he could. The result was a beautifully mellow and raw sound (you can hear the pedals and creaking wood), and to celebrate his 30th birthday he’s giving away his latest album for free. Happy birthday Nils.Download the album for free here.
