With the help of producer Gijs van Klooster and through collaborations with Cappella Amsterdam, Echo Collective and Maarten Vos, Joep Beving opens up new musical worlds using orchestral and electronic sounds alongside the familiar piano. It sets off where his sophomore album, Prehension, left us - the warm intimate sound of the Schimmel piano Beving inherited from his grandmother. On HENOSIS the Dutch composer continues his minimalist and at times romantic style of writing, but this time explores new territories. My hope is to give people a space to be in for a couple of minutes or hours where they feel things just seem to be right, like a recognition that they’re understood or that they can just be.” “So this journey, in a way, is also an internal one. “I believe that the answers are much more on the inside,” he explains. By now he is one of the most streamed pianists in the world. “This is my journey, and my search for understanding,” says Beving, the acclaimed composer/pianist who rose to eminence in 2015 thanks to millions of streams of the contemplative, atmospheric album, Solipsism. HENOSIS, Joep Beving’s closing chapter in a trilogy of albums – marking the end of an intensely personal four-year spiritual and philosophical exploration.
