NOAH VANDEN ABEELE

"There are few pianists in this genre capable of conveying so many emotions, evoking so many images, and touching the heart so deeply." – Knack Focus

Noah has been improvising on the piano since childhood, even before taking his first lessons. Later, as he immersed himself in classical music and obtained his Master’s degree in piano at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels, the desire for freedom remained strong. “My relationship with music conflicted with the conservative values and tacit codes of the institution. But I remain grateful for the training I received there: it taught me a great deal and allowed me to deepen my technical, musical, and harmonic knowledge.”

Noah has already performed live in renowned venues and festivals such as Flagey Piano Days, the Mainstage of Gent Jazz, and the Concertgebouw Amsterdam. Noah is also one of the resident pianists at the Royal Film Archive CINEMATEK in Brussels, where he has improvised live for more than 600 silent films.
