Liminal

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, Liminal will be available as a limited-edition 2LP set on eco-vinyl – the discs are housed in a gatefold sleeve and the album comes with a signed artcard by Joep Beving.

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 author’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.”
