Graduated from a music school / 21 years of piano experiencesatomi
I began playing the piano at the age of four and spent six years at a conservatory, focusing mainly on classical music while honing my skills. In addition to solo performance, I studied extensively in chamber music and two-piano repertoire, and I had the opportunity to perform twice on stage as a soloist in piano concertos. While not to the same extent as classical, I also learned jazz and pop through practical performance. I was active as a pianist in various settings, including instrumental and vocal/choral accompaniment, performance assistance for other departments, and recording sessions. Beyond the piano, I devoted five years to the trombone in a wind ensemble. I hope to draw on these experiences to share the charm of music with many people.

This is a feature on the works of composer Eduard Franck, who was born during the era of the Kingdom of Prussia, the predecessor of modern Germany.

Because he was strict with his own compositions, he often completed works slowly.

As a result, his general name recognition is somewhat lower than that of contemporaries active in the same period.

Nevertheless, the deeply refined pieces he produced have earned solid acclaim and have been passed down to the present day.
