A fusion of outstanding piano technique and a rich sense of melody.
These works were produced during the period when he was based in New York, and they beautifully blend his international perspective with his delicate Japanese sensibilities.
The album is mainly comprised of original songs, and the title track "Starlight" is a beautiful ballad with clear tones and flowing phrases that evoke the brilliance of the night sky. From light swing numbers to sophisticated fusion-style songs, the album showcases a wide range of expressiveness.
