One of Musika’s recent projects was a live recording in New York City.
The evening featured the fine artistry and musicianship of Sachiko Kato (piano), Kiyoko Nakata (Violin) and Raman Ramakrishnan (Cello), who provided a wonderful evening of exciting and interesting modern works of the last 50 years by renown Japanese contemporary composers.
Here are some excerpts from the concert:
‘Little Crystal Romance’ & ‘Waltz’ for Solo piano - Takashi Yoshimatsu ( 1953 - )
‘Between Tides’ for piano trio - Toru Takemitsu ( 1930 - 1996 )
‘Scherzo molto vivace’ for piano trio - Akio Yashiro ( 1929 - 1976 )
‘Cloud Atlas’ for Solo piano - Toshi Ichiyanagi ( 1933 - )
