9, June 2021; Beastie Poetry
So much excited to announce that my new piece “Réquiem para un niño” for Josefine Göhmann is going to be premiered on 9th June in Vienna, Austria. It’s been long long time since the last time I had my music in a concert hall physically. Just crossed fingers this is really happening! This piece is lullaby for all the children even they are not here anymore. It’s a very sad poem I took from Spanish author GUSTAVO ADOLFO BÉCQUER. Day/Time:19:30 on 9th June 2021 Location:Reaktor (Geblergasse 40, Wien) HERE! ソプラノのための新作”Réquiem para un niño”が6月9日にウィーンにて初演されることになりました。 こうしてコンサートというコンサートができるのは、本当に久しぶりで本当に嬉しく、またどうかこのまま行われますようにと祈るような気持ちでいます。 この作品は、子守唄。 スペイン人の詩人GUSTAVO ADOLFO BÉCQUERさんの詩が歌詞となっています。大変悲しい子守唄ですが、昨年、尊く美しい母の愛とは何かを考えながら昨年ノルウェーで、制作しました。

MUJI for piano
This is one of the pieces from my “MUJI” series (étude series for various instruments) and this is for piano. I wrote this in 2018 but had not gotten any opportunity to get the premiere however finally it got premiere in Venice, Italy this year. It was premiered by Mizuho Furukubo, my ex classmate of the conservatory in Tokyo. The piece is crazy difficult to perform and very intense from the beginning to the end. I didn’t use any techniques for the inside of piano and also I focused on the physical movements which pianist has as an “exercise”. Hope you enjoy it, it starts at 26:55. HERE! MUJI -ピアノのための-

Under the Umbrella It has been already three years since I started writing this piece. It was right after my opera “Skyggen(The Shadow)” and I was very much interested in raining, water and shadow at that time. Yes, I am now too. Under the umbrella, it’s kinda personal space. You cold cover your face and body and also protect yourself from something outside, the rain. Sometimes you can share that space with another one, but often with someone special. The rain itself doesn’t have sound. When it teaches something it sounds. You can’t have a relationship by your own, you need someone to have it. If you are in Aarhus,
