Hania Rani is an award-winning Polish pianist, composer and musician who has collaborated with Ólafur Arnalds, Vikingur Olafsson, Portico Quartet and Christian Löffler, to name but a few. She returns to Ireland in October 2023 for her biggest ever headline concert at Dublin’s iconic Vicar Street, as part of a major tour in support of recently released third studio album.
The album, entitled Ghosts released on 6 October 2023 via Gondwana Records, features high-profile collaborations from the like of Ólafur Arnalds, Duncan Bellamy (Portico Quartet) and Patrick Watson.
Her debut album Esja, a beguiling collection of solo piano pieces on Gondwana Records was released to international acclaim in 2019, with her sophomore album, the expansive, cinematic, Home following in 2020. Home was mastered by Zino Mikorey in Berlin (known for his work on albums by artists such as Nils Frahm and Ólafur Arnalds). For her work on these records, Hania won four prestigious Fryderyk Awards (Poland’s answer to the Grammys).
In January 2021, Hania signed her publishing rights to Wise Music Group, where her music is represented next to names like Dustin O’Halloran, Hildur Guðnadóttir and Ludovico Einaudi. This year, Hania was asked by director Susanna Fanzun to score the documentary On Giacometti about the artist Alberto Giacometti. Released by Gondwana Records, the soundtrack was recorded in the Swiss mountains with Hania being surrounded by snow and ice which is reflected in the delicate recordings.
