ARTIST BIO

A musical language at the crossroads of image, emotion and attentive listening.

Working across piano, classical guitar, orchestral colour and ambient textures, Yannis creates music as a sensory space. Silence, resonance, memory and timbre become materials for shaping experiences that are intimate, visual and quietly transformative.

His imagination is nourished by nature, psychology, perception and the invisible emotional layers of everyday life. Rather than following rigid conventions, he looks for the precise form each idea requires, from a concert work or piano miniature to film and media composition, sound design, interactive media or a distinctive sonic identity.

In 2026, Yannis Koser received a Gold Prize in Composition at the Ravel International Music Competition and a Gold Award in Composition at the Brahms International Online Music Competition.

Classically trained as a guitarist and active in music pedagogy for more than a decade, he brings the same attention to teaching: nuance before display, understanding before repetition, and an individual progression for every learner. His work with children, teenagers and adults connects technique, musicality and confidence.

Based in Brussels, Belgium, and available for international remote collaboration, Yannis continues to develop new compositions, sound worlds, recordings and collaborations while teaching guitar. Across these different practices, the intention remains constant: to create a meaningful relationship between sound and the person receiving it.
