Sinfonia della Terra

With his innovative project Expanded Piano, pianist Andreas Woyke explores new sonic dimensions at the intersection of art and technology. Using voice effect processors and a loop station, he transforms the acoustic piano into a multidimensional instrument—layering, reshaping, and expanding its natural soundscape in real time.

In his composition Sinfonia della Terra, Woyke blends multiple loops in a style reminiscent of a DJ mix, creating a seamless musical narrative that evolves organically. The result is the fusion of classical virtuosity and contemporary sound design.

Premiered in 2024, the Expanded Piano project has since evolved through a series of performances, including the AVL Sales Conference 2025. Each iteration has pushed the boundaries of what a piano can be—not just an instrument but a starting point for sound experimentation and emotional intensity.
