Joja Wendt - Das Biest und das Schöne

Joja Wendt is pure piano power! In spring 2027, the star pianist will be on his grand tour through Germany with his new program “The Beast and the Beautiful - A Piano Concert Between Power and Precision” and double piano strength.

Tickets for the concerts are now available in an exclusive presale on www.myticket.de and from December 3, 2025, at 11 a.m. at the usual ticket outlets.

“A concert is successful for me when it resonates, surprises, touches, and is fun,” says Joja Wendt, who has become Germany's most popular pianist with countless sold-out concert tours over the past 30 years. His ongoing success, which has lasted for decades, is unbroken, and he is the only artist to perform three sold-out concerts in one day at the Elbphilharmonie. In 2027, he will go on tour with his new program “The Beast and the Beautiful – A Piano Concert Between Power and Precision” – bringing along two very special instruments: “The Beautiful,” his beloved Steinway concert grand piano, and at the many requests of his fans, the steel piano “The Beast,” custom-made for the Wacken Open Air.

“These two pianos symbolize my musical home: the elegance and the freedom, the tradition and the spirit of adventure,” says the exceptional pianist, who is known for his outstanding concerts and spectacular piano performances.
Whether at Wacken Open Air in front of more than 80,000 metal fans or at his concerts across Germany – Joja Wendt is a piano acrobat who captivates both classical music lovers and fans of pop to jazz.

In his new program, Joja Wendt combines everything that defines him as an artist: virtuosic classical music, captivating rhythm, a love for early jazz music, humor, improvisation – and the charming personal interaction with the audience.
