Known as the ‘Piano King’, French prodigy Sofiane Pamart plays his first UK show.

Pamart’s is a truly unique sound: he studied at the Conservatoire in Lille where he was a gold medallist, but made his breakthrough on the French rap scene, collaborating with rappers and becoming their go-to pianist. Bound with an energy and vigour not often seen in solo piano music, there is also a dreamy otherworldly ambience woven through his sound, which takes clear influence from Claude Debussy, Erik Satie and Philip Glass.
 
Breaking the elitist codes of classical piano and seamlessly crossing genres, Sofiane Pamart has been hailed by music fans since his debut, with a string of sold out concerts behind him. Live, his natural style and charisma shine through, leaving his audiences enraptured.
