What to Expect

Each concert will be kept deliberately intimate in scale. Kouki believes that live music works best when the audience and performers share the same room in a meaningful way — which means smaller venues, closer listening, and space for the music to breathe.

Solo Piano Evenings

The solo recitals will feature the complete Ma to Hibiki suite alongside works in progress and a selection of pieces from the Shizen album. The June date in Tokyo will include a world premiere of a new solo work currently untitled.

Chamber Ensemble Concerts

The Kyoto evening will feature the string quartet performing Yoru no Shizuku in full, plus chamber arrangements of selected Shizen tracks. This will be the first opportunity to hear the full string quartet version performed live outside Tokyo.

Collaborative Evening

The Osaka concert brings together Kouki and a small group of collaborators for an evening of both composed and improvised music. Full details on the guest performers will be announced closer to the date.
