Pianist Nils Frahm returns to Manchester’s Albert Hall for an evening of minimalist electronics, as he embarks on a worldwide tour. The creative classical composer uses Moog synthesisers, ambient samples and – as seen on previous live dates – toilet brushes to create textured layers of sound. Since his last improvisational album ‘Solo’, released on the avant-garde label Erased Tapes, Frahm has written a film score, appeared on an Assassin’s Creed trailer, and led a project to build the world’s tallest piano. The first European dates of his ‘All Melody’ world tour are already selling out, so it’s worth grabbing tickets soon.
Wed 28 Feb 2018, Albert Hall, 27 Peter Street, Manchester M2 5QR. Tel: 0844 858 8521, 7pm, £27.50, www.alberthall.seetickets.com
