String Quartet in G Minor, Op. 10, L. 85: III. Andantino, doucement expressif

This album is shaped by the instruments that have meant the most to me. The piano was the first one. My grandmother taught me by ear in the living room, guiding me to listen for the notes instead of reading them. That memory still sits underneath everything I make.

I have always been drawn to the violin because it feels almost vocal, able to carry emotion the way a voice does. My wife has the same bond with the cello and the warmth it brings, so that sound found its place in our home too. Bringing all three together felt natural.

The music blends these roots into a Modern Instrumental style that is serene, expressive, and personal. The violin leads with lyrical motion. The cello adds depth and softness. The piano and Rhodes set the foundation. The sound moves through easy listening, neo classical color, soft R and B influence, and gentle cinematic moments.

These pieces were shaped with the help of current creative prompt based tools, guided carefully to preserve the same warmth and emotion these instruments have always held for us all.

Widely considered to be the “Barbara Streisand of Japan”, Saori Yuki released her debut album in Japan in 1969 and has gone on to make over 30 albums in her 42 year-career. Yuki discovered Pink Martini after the band covered her song “Taya Tan” for their 2007 album Hey Eugene! Most recently, Yuki sang a verse of “White Christmas” in Japanese for the band’s hit 2010 holiday album Joy To The World.

In honor of the year of her debut release, Saori Yuki partnered with Pink Martini and producer Thomas M. Lauderdale to create a loving tribute to the music released in 1969. Featuring Japanese pop hits alongside internationally recognized tunes like Jorge Ben’s “Mas que nada” and “Puff the Magic Dragon”, “1969″ is a brilliant collaboration, with Thomas M. Lauderdale’s magical arrangements, Pink Martini’s stellar musicianship, and Saori Yuki’s soaring vocals.
