Edward Enman

Collaborative pianist

Edward Enman is a classical pianist and composer whose original musical style has been shaped by the lush lyricism of Sigur Rós and the rhythmic drive of John Adams, while taking on a powerful warmth all its own. His inventive voice draws from storytelling, cinema, and visual art, while incorporating electronic elements and style-blurring writing.
