RIOPY

More than one billion. This is how many times a human on Earth has taken a couple of minutes to calm down and to listen to a piano song written and performed by the Franco- British pianist RIOPY. Written from the heart and for the heart, this music is about communicating, connecting and up-lifting. 2023 has begun with a stable position in the top 10 of the Billboard Classical Charts for 128 weeks, a feature on Lana Del Rey’s forthcoming album, and his fourth album on April 14: THRIVE. THRIVE evokes the inner strength that guides us to fulfill our goals, the willpower that leads to positive evolution. This is the feeling that led RIOPY to create this new album. The pianist found this collective strength in notes and themes of great composers from classical music history and in integrating strings into his compositions for the first time. With THRIVE, he has written a new chapter. This year, RIOPY performs throughout Europe, then returns to the United States before touring in Asia for the first time, where China and Japan are calling his name. In 2023, RIOPY becomes an international phenomenon.
