Nils Frahm will release a new collection of solo piano music.

Day is Frahm’s first album since 2022’s three-hour Music For Animals.

Recorded in the summer of 2022 in complete solitude, the album contains six tracks, three over the six-minute mark. We’re told that it’s best enjoyed in the manner in which it was recorded: in the intimacy of a peaceful, cosy room.

It may come as a surprise to those who, over the last decade, have watched Frahm shift slowly away from the piano compositions with which he first made his name in favour of a style that’s more instrumentally complex and intricately arranged.

It’s the first of a pair of albums that the German musicianhas lined up for 2024. They’ll both land on LEITER, Frahm’s own label.
