Yann Tiersen live in Falmouth

Experience Yann Tiersen live on September 20th

Yann Tiersen will be performing at The Cornish Bank in Falmouth, Cornwall, on September 20, 2026. Tiersen is a French composer and accordionist recognised for his emotive and atmospheric musical style. His work frequently blends contemporary classical, folk, and tango influences, often featuring piano, accordion, violin, and cello prominently. He gained international recognition following the success of the 2001 film *Amélie*, for which he composed the celebrated soundtrack. His compositions are known for their melancholic beauty and narrative quality, extending beyond film scores to include solo albums and collaborative projects.

The Cornish Bank is a relatively new venue in Falmouth, having opened in 2018. It occupies a former Lloyds TSB bank building dating back to the Victorian era – specifically constructed in 1881 by Silvanus Trevail – and has been repurposed as a multi-arts space. The building’s original features, including its high ceilings and banking hall architecture, are retained within the performance area.
