Sofiane Pamart - 'the piano king' - second soloalbum 'LETTER' out today!

French pianist Sofiane Pamart is redefining what it means to be a classical music star with his modern interpretation of piano music – becoming one the genre’s most-streamed artists in the process. Blowing away people’s perception that classical music is stuffy and elitist, he continues to tear up the rulebook with the release of his new single ‘DEAR’ taken from the stunning new album ‘LETTER’, both available to stream now. The CD format of the album will be released on 18th February with the vinyl coming in March.

The album ‘LETTER’, composed of 18 pieces of music, was written while Sofiane was travelling in Asia throughout the diverse landscapes of South Korea, Japan, Thailand, Singapore, Taiwan, and Vietnam. It is his letter of gratitude addressed directly to all of those who have followed his journey so far with the track listing spelling out this personal ‘Thank You’:

4 months, 6 countries, and more than twenty different cities later; born out of this deeply contrasting and fast-paced Asian environment, Sofiane’s LETTER has arrived and looks set to continue the stratospheric rise for this immensely talented artist

Heralded as the “New Face of Luxury” by the Paris Salon du Luxe, Sofiane regularly works with prestigious maisons and brands such as Maison Cartier, C. Bechstein, Moncler, Chivas, Etudes Studio, Lacoste, Ubisoft, Polaroid, Kappa and Fila Europe. A unique blend of high-fashion elegance and authentic street credibility –a haute couture pianist with the mentality and image of a rapper.

Of Moroccan Berber origin, Sofiane possesses and embodies the courageous values of his family. A family where each generation recognizes its gratitude to its elders and those who came before them, while working selflessly to pave the way for the new generation. That's why Lina Pamart, his sister, is the only featured artist on this album ‘LETTER’.

Sofiane spent 16 years honing his craft while studying at the Conservatoire National de Lille where he graduated with a gold medal. Choosing to forge his own path - and get away from the route traditionally taken by classical artists - he has become French rap’s pianist of choice, collaborating with artists such as Maes, SCH, Vald, Koba LaD and many more. Along the way he has performed at some of the world’s most iconic locations, from becoming the first artist to perform a full show under the Northern Lights in Lapland to performing at the Louvre and at the Czech Royal Family’s castle in Prague. His music is intense and cinematographic, finding the balance between technical skills and raw emotions – connecting classical music to a new generation and sweeping away the elitist barriers in the process.
