The Magic Forest

Max Köhler

Max Köhler is a young composer and pianist from Nürtingen in Southern Germany, who is currently studying as a sound engineer. He is releasing his piano suite The Magic Forest on 12 March 2021. 

The work is inspired by a walk through the Bois de Païolive (also known as the Magic Forest) in the Cévennes in Southern France, a place full of holm oaks and rocks. Köhler describes his influences as being Romantic and Impressionist classical composers as well as film composers like John Williams or Danny Elfman.

Max is releasing movements from the suite on YouTube by degrees, the first video is now on YouTube.
