KOJI ASANO

"PREPARING FOR APRIL"

Solstice

Electroacoustic composer Koji Asano introduces us in this album into another of his interesting experiments. In his quest to explore new dimensions of sound, in this occassion he has created a series of more or less meditative piano pieces, flowing along Classical Music, Minimalism and Jazz, whose most original trait is its sound texture, determined by its recording on a microcassette. The ever present sound typical of the CD is thus replaced by this other one, which allows the listener to hear the music from a more limited perspective, as if it were a black and white photograph as compared to a color version of the same.
