Frederik Croene started his career as a self-taught musician before taking up traditional music education. Fueled by his passion for contemporary music and new performance practices, he\u2019s presented a radical mix of styles and techniques both in concert and recording, that\u2019s been received enthusiastically throughout. Alongside his work as a performing musician, Croene rethinks traditional settings the piano and performer find themselves in through the concept of the deconstructed piano, with extraordinarily surprising results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
His new solo album Cul-de-Sac<\/em> looks for the dead ends of the piano and the neoclassical genre. Being confronted with these deadlocks, and lingering in them, is Croene’s strategy to prepare for future realities as a pianist. This leads to intense piano music where sparkling virtuosity and melodious Weltschmerz turn into despair and physical exhaustion. Cul-de-Sac <\/em>has been released in April 2019 on Cortizona. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4905,"template":"","class_list":["post-4904","artists","type-artists","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
