Itoko Toma releases a new solo piano album which forms a pair with her previous album, Beyond the Mountain.
In the summer of 2023, the album was recorded at Studio SALO in Oiso, and each solo piano pieces were played freely by her fingers, guided by the sound of an upright piano meticulously tuned by a piano technician. The collection of solo piano was inspired by a photo exhibition by Shin Kikuchi, the art director of Schole Records, which was held at the same studio.
Imagine the landscape filled with tones that are gentle as moonlight. A path where you can almost hear the birds singing, a moonlight ripples on the water, the soft light creating a gentle shadow. These music reflects the scenery which will gently soothe your soul. Enjoy listening to the solo piano pieces composed with heartfelt wishes that the morning brings a wonderful day.
本作は当真伊都子の前作 Beyond the Mountain と対を成すソロピアノ作品集です。
2023年夏、大磯にあるスタジオSALOにて録音された本作は、調律師により緻密に調整されたアップライトピアノの音色に導かれ、指の赴くままに紡がれた作品集です。折しも同スタジオにて開催されていた Schole Records のアートディレクターである菊地慎の写真展からインスパイアを受けたピアノソロ楽曲集になっています。
まるで月の光のような、優しさを湛えた音色で紡がれる景色。今にも鳥の鳴き声が聞こえてきそうな散歩道、月の光が浮かぶ漣、柔らかな光のそばにある優しい影。そんな景色を映し出す曲たちは、あなたの心を優しく潤すことでしょう。やがて迎える朝が素晴らしい1日の始まりを告げるように、願いを込めて制作された楽曲をどうぞお楽しみください。
