Younee brings classical music and jazz to life at Schloss Horst

On Saturday, October 17, 2026, Younee transforms KBZ – Schloss Horst in Gelsenkirchen into a resonance space between classical piano art, jazz, and spontaneous improvisation. Under the motto Classical meets Jazz meets Classical, the audience can expect an extraordinary concert experience with a pianist whose music shapes itself anew in every moment.

When composition arises in the moment

Younee describes her style as Free Classic & Jazz. Her stage performance blends classical training with jazz phrasing, rhythmic freedom, and immediate musical communication. Surprising turns grow from prepared sound colors: a quiet pianissimo can tilt into a furious run, while a familiar classical impulse can evolve into a completely new sound landscape.

Virtuosity between Furioso and Pianissimo

The South Korean concert pianist, composer, and singer studied at Yonsei University in Seoul. In Germany, her albums Jugendstil and My Piano each topped the German classical, jazz, and crossover charts. Her current double album Improvisations Live in Germany compiles live compositions from 2017 to 2022 and showcases her unique strength: music is created not only on stage but through the encounter with the moment.

An artist between concert hall and jazz festival

Younee has performed at venues including the Elbphilharmonie, Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival, Beethoven Festival, Leverkusen Jazz Days, Jazzopen Stuttgart, and Dresden Jazz Days. As an official Steinway Artist, she represents a precise, colorful piano sound and an extraordinary connection of classical orchestration, rhythmic synchronization, and free improvisation. The German press described her as a Keith Jarrett update in classical music.

Live atmosphere at Schloss Horst

In the historic ambiance of Schloss Horst, the clear acoustics of the concert hall meet Younee's expressive sound language. The audience experiences an intense stage performance where each note carries weight and every pause creates tension. Between jazz, classical, crossover, and contemporary improvisation, an audience atmosphere emerges that is simultaneously concentrated, sensual, and surprising.

Conclusion: An evening of musical uniqueness

Younee invites audiences in Gelsenkirchen to an evening where no musical moment sounds arbitrary. Those wishing to experience piano music with surprising twists, virtuosic improvisation, and cross-genre energy should attend this concert live at Schloss Horst.
