PIANO
The Speisinger Studio Sessions
Yelayu’s debut album, The Speisinger Studio Sessions, will be available through Naxos in August of 2024. The album will include classical music from the Baroque, Romantic, Late Romantic, Impressionistic & 20th Century eras, as well as Yelayu’s original compositions. Yelayu’s playing - sonically dynamic, emotional, and and robust - is perfectly captured with the sound of a Steinway D-274 concert grand piano on one of the world’s most acoustically-perfect stages.
Yelayu is especially proud to partner with Naxos of America, the largest classical music distributor in the world, for this project.
Check back in June for reviews, a special online-only vinyl version, and performance dates. A special 7-track samplers is available below:
Yelayu AS Pianist
Yelayu is a classically trained composer-pianist whose teacher was a pupil of Rudolph Ganz. His repertoire tends to lean toward the Romantic, Impressionistic, and modern, but still properly highlights the Classical, Gallant, and Rococo eras.
INVITE YELAYU TO PERFORM
Yelayu is available to perform in:
solo recitals
ensembles
chamber groups
His performance repertoire is classical music, with a major focus on the Romantic & Impressionistic eras, but also including works from the Baroque, Gallant, Rococo, and Classical eras. He also performs his own compositions, which are Modern Classical in nature.
While he primarily prefers music focused performances (recitals, concerts, festivals), he is available for certain events at special request.
Contract performances only, booking agencies preferred.
