Ben Bohmer and Allen Hulsey

Churen Li opened for internationally acclaimed DJ Ben Böhmer at the iconic Capitol Kempinski Theatre, presenting a program that combined classical masterpieces with her own original compositions. Her performance introduced an intimate, lyrical dimension to the evening, offering moments of reflection and nuance that contrasted beautifully with the venue’s immersive electronic atmosphere. Through her expressive touch and thoughtful phrasing, she created a bridge between tradition and modernity, inviting the audience to experience classical piano in a fresh, unexpected context.

Later in the night, Churen joined forces with Allen Hulsey in a collaborative live set, blending acoustic piano with electronic textures. The dialogue between the instruments created a seamless fusion of genres, where structured lyricism met the dynamic energy of electronic soundscapes. The evening highlighted Churen’s versatility as a performer — a pianist equally at home in the concert hall and on contemporary stages, capable of reimagining classical music for new spaces and audiences.
