Amid evocative imagery reminiscent of the westerly winds blowing from France to Japan, we invite you to a special evening tracing the evolution of piano works composed in the 20th century. Centered on the sonatas of Kishio Hirao—whose music reflects the harsh realities of the postwar era while conveying a sense of spiritual solitude to the listener—and Hikaru Hayashi—who balanced a sharp social critique with a tender appreciation for nature—we have carefully selected masterpieces ranging from the refined melodies of the Group of Six to the sensibilities that defined 1980s Japan, We have curated a selection of thematically rich masterpieces. While some works may be unfamiliar to you, please feel free to let go of any preconceptions and simply surrender to the rich musical world painted by the piano. Through the performances and Seisei Fujiwara’s thoughtful commentary, you can deeply appreciate what these composers were contemplating in their respective eras and what kind of sounds they sought to create. Please enjoy this luxurious experience of engaging with the sounds of the piano in the serene salon setting of Ashiya.
