"Listen to new Tomotsugu Nakamura's album is a similar experience to contemplate a delicate object: a box of carved wood, a collage, a diadem. Each sound is worked with love and mastery. This music is full of wonder" - Federico Durand

Live recording from a show in Japan at Guggenheim house where I previously recorded piano songs for Bite the Mountain. Here I am joined by some of my favorite musicians in Japan - Inada Makoto on double bass who also plays on Bite the Mountain, experimental drummer Yamagisan (and famous for her delicious handmade udon noodles), Kamei Naoko on clarinet and ICHI on Steel drum

Elephants swimming - live version

HAU (Henning Schmiedt + aus) - Anywhere

Klavierraum is the place where my piano is, but it’s also a virtual space and spiritual shelter whenever needed – it immediately appears when I am playing piano, floating in sound and resonating with melodies. In my concerts I feel this ‘Raum’ is embracing and covering me, the piano and my whole audience.

Klavierraum, my very first solo piano album, tells a story of arranging a tea time for a rendezvous. Nachher is like a sequel sometime later on – this time it’s about preparing for a surprise morning coffee with my favorite pancake!

For the new album I used previously unpublished material of the original Klavierraum session. Some parts were recorded later on, but in the same setting and similar spirit. – Henning Schmiedt
