KEXP touces on Hania Rani's origin story and influences and then gets right to the music as these works are a bit longer.
On the show this time, it’s the cinematic piano and electronics of Hania Rani.
The Polish pianist’s latest album, On Giacometti, is out February 2023 on Gondwana Records. She continues to expand on her film score ambient classical atmospherics, using electronics and her clear wistful voice. In this episode, we touch on Rani's origin story and influences and then get right to the music as these works are a bit longer. This performance features 3 previously unreleased pieces, and one — “Buka” — from her 2020 release, Home.
