Notes fall like raindrops, accelerating their rhythm as clouds gather. A piano melody splashes into a vast electronic soundscape; the trees become denser, the journey deepens. With her acclaimed album Ravel In The Forest, released on the Platoon label, pianist and composer Belle Chen invites listeners into an imagined world of ancient forests, quiet clearings and vibrant tropical treetops. Birds, a chameleon, a dragonfly - nature hums with life in its immersive sonic universe.
After a standing ovation at her debut at the EFG London Jazz Festival 2024, Belle was praised by Brian Eno as “original and provocative…feels like a process of discovery”. Her Australian Music Prize-nominated album reached number 7 on the UK Official Charts (Specialist Classical) and number 15 on the Australian ARIA Classical Charts.
On stage, Belle's performances are at once playful and delicate, weaving narratives through sound. Influences from Maurice Ravel, Ryuichi Sakamoto and Joe Hisaishi shimmer in her music as she combines bold synth explorations, classical virtuosity and free-flowing improvisations that feel equally at home on jazz, classical or experimental stages.
On April 1, 2026, Belle brings her enchanting solo show to Maschinenhaus for an evening at the Kulturbrauerei, Berlin. The concert presents pieces from Ravel In The Forest as well as new material and offers the audience a captivating journey through sound, fantasy and nature.
