Joep Beving, one of the world’s best-loved and most-streamed pianists, has written and recorded an album of brand-new material. Out on 20 March 2026 as a 2LP set on eco-vinyl – housed in a gatefold sleeve – Liminal was inspired by Guillaume Logé’s book Wild Renaissance, and joins its call for closer, more symbiotic connections between human activity and the natural world.
The book’s vision of a world in which men see nature as a creative partner spoke to Beving, encouraging him to write new works that could form part of a 21st-century Renaissance movement. “With this music,” he explains, “I wanted to explore our small but meaningful place in the bigger picture, stepping away from human-centered thinking and towards a way of creating ‘with’ nature, rather than apart from it.”
Together, the 15 tracks on Liminal expand into a realm of uncertainty. “Throughout the album, there’s a constant dialogue between control and intuition,” says Beving. “It reflects that in between space; the liminal zone where meaning is still forming.”
