Alex Tambu

About

Alex considers himself a musical spirit, nurtured by the melodies that filled his childhood home. At the age of 3, he felt a strong attraction to the piano. He was captivated by the urge to replicate the sounds that surrounded him. His musical expression is unique because he perceives it in a special way. He does not see it through mere notes, but as a vibrant palette of colours. The piano is his canvas, and he paints with emotion.

Creating a soundscape that is intimate, reflective, and allows listeners to just sink into the music and the moment. Alex draws from his influences in classical, jazz, electronics, and contemporary music. He incorporates a lot of improvisation. This approach lets each performance feel unique to that day and place. It's a quieter, more personal experience.

Alex organises concerts that break Western classical music norms. He blends classical music with African instruments like the kora and djembe. The concerts also incorporate ambient music, neo-classical elements, poetry, dance and improvisation, all performed with live instruments. His performances attract classical enthusiasts and newcomers. They create an inclusive experience that bridges musical worlds. This approach makes classical music more accessible and engaging.
