Description
[Machine Translation] Ryotaro Imai, pianist, organist, keyboard harmonica player, composer, arranger, and producer of BossaNova and Samba, has released eight original CDs since his debut in 2011. In 2019, he debuted as an organist and will release his long-awaited album with organ performance. The album will include new compositions and piano bossa nova compositions, as well as organ performances reminiscent of Walter Wanderlei, who was a great influence on Imai. The album also includes "Mestori", the theme song for Yokohama Marine FM's "Kiyohiro Shiraishi's Kettle Monday! and "Tudo Bem," a collaboration with Lisa Ono, a leading bossa nova singer in Japan with whom Ryotaro Imai has collaborated since their first live performance at Carutz Kawasaki in 2020. The cover art was painted for this album by Ai Ohno, an artist from Yokohama who has attracted attention for her oil paintings of harbor scenes and ships, and for her unique technique of using stripes all over the paintings. This time, the subject is Ryotaro Imai's hometown of Hiratsuka, and a scene of an organ placed on the beach at Hiratsuka Port is depicted in one painting. It is a visually pleasing piece of work.
