Following 2010’s release of the Kitchen. Label classic “sketch”, ironomi returns with their long awaited seventh album, a 3CD 164 minutes collection entitled ‘niji’ (English Translation: Rainbow). Joining pianist Junya Yanagidaira and programmer Yu Isobe are a stellar line-up of their most loved collaborators and contemporaries. In ‘niji’, the record is marked by the same tranquility and fleetingness of their sound but also offers a slight departure from the traditions of ironomi’s previous recordings with the addition of other instruments (Saxophone, Contrabass, Koto, Violins etc) contributed by the guest musicians on each of the 12 tracks - Featuring Nobuyuki Nakajima, Jyoji Sawada (Choro Club) as well as members of the Kitchen. Label family ASPIDISTRAFLY, haruka nakamura, ARAKI Shin, Akira Uchida, Rie Nemoto among many others.

ironomi has a sound which is almost enigmatic to describe. One could listen to their albums on an ambient level and just let the music flow through. Or one could listen closer and find a detail in the sound that is intricate and palatable. ironomi’s impressionistic ripples of piano fragments generate the cumulative feel of a gently flowing river or the shifting play of light through the leaves of trees. ironomi is like nature, a sound of nature that has existed from the beginning and free from any judgement.

The duo’s music is distinctively less about conventional compositional structure than it is about the creating and sustain of mood. For each of the recordings in ‘niji’, improvised sessions were recorded and the best takes were kept intact with very minimal post production. The works showcase ironomi’s capacity to construct compelling music in real-time, their melodic-harmonic imagination as an improviser and ability to consistently find and shape new forms with each of their collaborators also sharing the same strong sense for the dialectics of sound and silence. A wishful charm imbues this entire recording of pieces which, though not written together, seem to have been predestined for each other in this album.

The latest album is highlighted by almost 40 minutes worth of music recorded together with haruka nakamura on classical guitar, whom he had spent his early formative years touring and collaborating with the duo on numerous occasions. In the collaboration with April Lee and Ricks Ang of ASPIDISTRAFLY, voices are striving to be heard and a song was unexpectedly born from the improvisational session. The result is perhaps the most strongly lyrical piece of ironomi’s releases to date.

“niji” is available on 3CD and digital formats on 24th December 2015. The physical CD copy comes in a customised letter-pressed folio. The cover is designed with a unique holographic foil which cause a refraction that creates constantly changing light reflections and prismatic colors. All linking back to the symbolic representation of the miraculous hues of ironomi’s sound world, trapping the listeners in a peaceful space of pure sound and sonic allusions.

haruka nakamura PIANO ENSEMBLE名義では初となるアルバム『光』が2枚組CD（BOX仕様特殊パッケージ）で2017年8月8日にリリース。今作は、haruka nakamuraが現在のPIANO ENSEMBLEメンバー［ARAKI shin（Sax & Flute）、内田輝（Sax）、斎藤功（Percussion）、根本理恵（Violin）］と共にレコーディングした作品『音楽ある風景』（2014年）、『CURTAIN CALL』（2016年）に続く3作目にして、PIANO ENSEMBLE 3部作の最終章。

2014年に『音楽のある風景』をリリース後、現在のPIANO ENSEMBLEの編成で広島世界平和記念聖堂を代表とする日本各地の教会や重要文化財や台湾〜シンガポールを巡り、7月21日開催の東京カテドラル聖マリア大聖堂の最終公演（※Sold Out）まで、約2年半に及ぶ全21公演のロングツアーを敢行。長いツアーの間に演奏されてきた楽曲たちは、それぞれの場所、空間、人々と共鳴しながら、即興演奏による再構築を繰り返し発展を遂げてきた。今作には2016年後期から2017年初頭の、グループとして洗練と成熟のピークを迎えたPIANO ENSEMBLEの到達点とも呼べるライブ音源が記録されている。

ディスク1には『音楽のある風景』が録音された東京・sonoriumにて再び行なわれた公開録音より、「nowhere」「SIN」「四月の装丁」「音楽のある風景」を収録。互いの音に呼応しながら一つ一つハーモニーを重ね合わされていく卓越したインタープレイに加え、魂を揺さぶるような圧倒的なダイナミズムとエモーションを備え、前作とは異なるまったく新しいサウンドが誕生。

ディスク2には東京や福岡などで録音された、CANTUS、baobab、そして14歳の歌姫・うららの”うた”をフィーチャーした3曲を収録。神々しいまでの美しさに満ちた現代の賛美歌「光」「CURTAIN CALL」。そして、熊本地震被災地に捧げた新曲「灯台」が、聖なる巡業とも言える長いツアーを終えたPIANO ENEMBLEの今後を優しく照らすようにアルバムの最後を締めくくる。

DISC1
1-1 nowhere (sonorium – Mar 11, 2017)
1-2 SIN (sonorium – Mar 11, 2017)
1-3 四月の装丁 (sonorium – Mar 11, 2017)
1-4 音楽のある風景 (sonorium – Mar 11, 2017)

DISC2
2-1 光 (Meguro Persimmon Hall – Dec 11, 2016)
2-2 CURTAIN CALL (Waseda Scott Hall – Dec 23, 2016)
2-3 灯台 (Lutheran Church – Jun 18, 2016)

Bonus Track 1 – はじまりの賛美歌 (Waseda Scott Hall – Dec 23, 2016)
Bonus Track 2 – 夕べの祈り (sonorium – Mar 11, 2017)

KITCHEN. LABEL presents haruka nakamura PIANO ENSEMBLE’s new album entitled “Hikari” in a special 2CD box set edition to be released on 8th August 2017. “Hikari” is the final set of the trilogy of albums (Ongaku No Aru Fuukei and CURTAIN CALL) to feature the current PIANO ENSEMBLE lineup before they go on a indefinite hiatus after their last show at the grand St Mary’s Cathedral in Tokyo on 21st July 2017.

Since the release of “Ongaku No Aru Fuukei” in 2014, haruka nakamura PIANO ENSEMBLE has held a tour with 17 concerts in Japan and 4 around Asia, with high profile and sold-out concerts at venues such at Memorial Cathedral of World Peace in Hiroshima, Meguro Persimmon Hall in Tokyo and Hyogo Performing Arts Center in Kobe among others. Recorded in late 2016 and early 2017, “Hikari” includes a new suite of pieces from evolved and fully-formed versions of the group’s favourites and also previously unrecorded items from its concert programs. The album’s repertoire is the ensemble’s most complete yet and documented at the peak of the ensemble’s form.

Part one of “Hikari” begins with music recorded once again at the acoustically profound sonorium hall in Tokyo. As ever, haruka nakamura’s attention to the purity and precision of each and every note is matched by counterparts ARAKI Shin (Saxophone and Flute), Akira Uchida (Saxophone), Rie Nemoto (Violin) and Isao Saito (Drums). haruka nakamura’s piano melodies might appear uncomplicated, but this transparency of sound creates a mesmerising cumulative effect with “SIN” representing the ensemble at its most buoyant.
