001 (LP)
sleeve : EX(SPSE: 5mm very slightly crack on top.)
media : EX-/EX-(some light surface noises.)
This is a compilation album of works by four Japanese pianists, Masahiko Sato, Ichiko Hashimoto, Aki Takase, and Takashi Kako, who participated in a solo piano concert in Hiroshima in 1984. The individuality of the four pianists shines brightly, and there are all wonderful performances, but I recommend B1 by Kazuko Hashimoto, which hits you with a beautiful melody that falls like a squall from the middle of the piece, and B2 by Takashi Kako, which is full of positive energy.
B1: Ichiko Hashimoto “Mizu No Kaidan ~ Odoru Umi”B2: Takashi Kako “Someday”
