Black-/Classical- inspired Pop
I create music rooted in classical music theory and composition, infused with the rhythms and textures of funk and other black music genres. My musical journey began with the trombone at age nine, studying under distinguished mentors Shin-ichi Go and Fabrice Millischer, followed by the piano from age twelve. While in university, I began teaching myself composition and arrangement. During my studies abroad at the University of Hildesheims Department of Music in Germany, I earned credits in composition courses centered on classical and jazz music. Beyond providing original compositions for others, I am active as a support musician (keyboards and trombone) for various bands. My creative approach spans a wide spectrum, from traditional sounds to the latest trends. I also perform as the keyboardist and vocalist of my own three-piece band, playing live shows in Shimokitazawa and Shibuya and releasing music digitally. Grounded in Western musical traditions, my goal is to fuse the lineages of classical, funk, and soul to achieve a unique musical expression that transcends genre boundaries.
