16 excellent pieces of music echoing from a vacant concert hall.

The Tokyo-based pianist and member of the cinematic instrumental music band, Anoice, and its side projects, RiLF, Films, Mizu Amane, and Cru, Yuki Murata, will release her 2nd concert album 'Piano Quartet Concert' on December 2nd, 2022.

This album was recorded in an concert hall where Yuki Murata played, not only on her piano solo but also as part of a quartet together with three string instrument players; Kumi Takahara on violin, Utaka Fujiwara from Anoice on viola, and Kaori Tsuchiya on cello, who all also joined Yuki Murata on her latest solo album, 'Sunny Spot Story'. They performed, centring around Yuki Murata's solo project songs as well as also two tracks from Anoice, to which she belongs, to create a concert album including excellent songs which sometimes make you feel a warm and gentle peacefulness, and sometimes a quiet and dark nervousness.

Takahiro Kido from Anoice took charge of the engineer for recording, mixing, and mastering. In addition, Tadashi Yoshikawa from Anoice directed the concert, and its video will be available to view with a full length on the following YouTube link at 8 pm Japan time on December 1st. Not to mention, Yuki Murata and Utaka Fujiwara who joined as the viola player, all the members of Anoice created this masterpiece together.

This is the 6th track and sad and sentimental piano solo song included in '24 Piano Sketches' that is a new solo album from Yuki Murata, the Tokyo-based pianist/composer and member of the cinematic instrumental music band, Anoice, and its side projects, RiLF and Films, who fascinates music fans in the world by her lovely melodies and piano sounds.

As the name suggests, '24 Piano Sketches' includes 24 piano songs which Yuki Murata plays improvisations on her own grand and upright pianos. This long project is going to add 2 songs every month and ultimately 24 songs in one year, allowing the listeners to feel the changing of the season in real-time via the beautiful, warm, and sometimes melancholic piano sounds.

This time, she purposely selected a cassette tape recorder, a MiniDisc player, and an early generation of iPhone as the recording equipments for each song, unlike studio albums from her own bands such as Anoice. These retro and simplistic recording devices were able to capture not only a creaking noise coming from the piano and the environmental sounds outside the window, but also a noise occurred by cheap microphones, which make this album so impressive. Its nostalgic soundscape may remind her listeners of her first solo album 'Films' and second solo album 'Home'.

You should feel the changing of the seasons with the beautiful piano melodies.

I’m excited to share Reflections, a collection of six piano (+ three variations) pieces that I originally composed for an upcoming film, set to be released next spring. These pieces are personal and flowing, each one capturing moments of introspection and emotion that emerged through the scoring process.

On a few tracks, I had the pleasure of collaborating with cellist Eurico Ferreira Mathias, whose playing adds a beautiful, soulful depth to the music. His cello brings an extra layer of feeling that really complements the piano and enhances the mood.

Reflections is a quiet, heartfelt project that I hope will give listeners a space to pause and reflect. In these fast-paced and challenging times, I hope this album offers a moment of calm that we all deeply need. Thank you for listening.
Yours truly, Sebastian

using my old noisy sampled piano which I love

Tired of trying to make music thats a copy of somone elses, and trying to avoid noisy pianos or samples. This is life, it´s noisy, it´s imperfect, screw you castrated popular music idiots and radio crap.

Good night all.
Hope this music touches you in some way, if not hope you at least enjoyed the minutes. 

Free download btw.
