New Music: Hideyuki Hashimoto – Koto

Japanese composer and pianist Hideyuki Hashimoto is a new favourite of mine, creating beautiful piano pieces that evoke the soul.

By Jane Howkins

Koto is a track taken from his new album piano room, making me want to listen to the entire thing! The song features an understated piano melody as its main instrumentation, sounding hauntingly beautiful throughout! The piano variates slightly from the main theme as the piece progresses, although it always comes back to the main melody, sounding perfectly crafted. If you like classical music, this is for you!
