simple days when we think of our beloved lives are much gentler

The passing of a loved one. Sudden, unexpected farewells.
Each time, a quiet prayer is kindled deep within the heart,
flowing gently into music.

Shiba Keiko s new EP is a tender and heartfelt collection,
born from those moments of parting with precious lives.
A wish lies at the heart of these melodies:
[May the ones we love rest beneath a sky full of peace and happiness.]

Glimpses of emotion found in a passing sky,
a fleeting landscape-
this album captures only what she feels in this very moment,
woven delicately into each note.

Each piece reflects the quiet beauty of everyday life,
facing the present with honesty and grace.
May its soft light find its way gently into your heart.

Please take a quiet moment and let this album of small prayers
resonate within you.

Message from Shiba Keiko

[In the past year, I have had to say goodbye to many dear lives,
far too suddenly.
I wrote these pieces with a heartfelt wish:
may those precious souls now be in peace, under a kind sky.

The music in this album reflects feelings drawn from quiet days,
fleeting scenes, and my long-held love for Celtic-inspired sounds.

I considered including older compositions as well,
but instead chose to focus entirely on the songs
that reflect how I feel right now, in this moment of my life.

I hope you will take a listen, and that something in it speaks to you.]
