Dutch pianist and composer Joep Beving records for the world’s most prestigious classical music label, but his streaming numbers are more like a pop star. He creates introspective and often filmic instrumental piano compositions, representing a quest for essence and beauty. Beving plays one piece from each of his mostly solo piano records on a down-tuned piano (A=432), in-studio.  - Caryn Havlik
