Tania Giannouli's new album SOLO

Tania Giannouli’s fifth album for Rattle is arguably her most important to date, a beautifully conceived set of piano improvisations ranging from the pastorale and lyrical to the most searching and desolate. 

SOLO is an artistically concentrated album, fearless, personal, and profoundly musical, a work that highlights Tania’s exceptional talents as an accomplished, highly intuitive pianist.

Tania Giannouli is a Greek pianist, composer, improviser and bandleader. Classically trained (Piano Soloist and Composition diplomas) she explores jazz as the most creative music form and regularly employs improvisation in her practice. She makes jazz of the kind where improvisation is just the starting point and somewhere out there - or something deep inside - is the aim. Ιnspired by many different traditions and influences, her music and interdisciplinary projects span an impressive range of styles - a creative and borderless amalgamation of today’s global reality.


Her genre-defying "open sound language" is often described as lyrical, inspired, complex, eclectic, intoxicating and highly original.
