A year and a half after the release of eclogue, Arabesque Choche quietly unveils a new piano album: haru.
Just as the title suggests, this collection of 13 tracks gently evokes the feeling of spring-soft, nostalgic, and full of quiet warmth.
Revisiting the stillness and spaciousness found in the debut album Coe, Arabesque Choche delicately weaves a continuation of that world, gently expanding upon its essence with new perspectives.
In contrast to the live recordings featured in the previous work, haru returns to a soundscape crafted primarily with programmed instruments-bringing back the familiar tones from Coe to paint new scenes through a different lens.
Coe was created during the birth of a new life. Since then, quiet days spent watching the slow and steady growth of children have shaped the moments that now dwell within haru. Each track holds a piece of those peaceful, passing days.
The album comes to a close with a vocal reinterpretation of its opening track, where juliet of Chouchou lends her gentle and ephemeral voice to quietly bid farewell to the passing spring.
Arabesque was born to Czech father and Japanese mother. He started piano at the age of three and received a classical music education. After he graduated at the top of his class from a graduate school of music in Japan, he went to Austria to devoted himself to the study of piano. He started composing music when he was in high school, and after going through many experiences in music, he started a new project as a composer under the name of "Arabesque Choche" from 2020. Apart from that, he is a member of electronica group "Chouchou" with a vocalist juliet Heberle, and folktronica group "Orcaorca" with a guitarist maya Kawadias, and Lo-fi Hip Hop project"no go".
