In a recent interview, Rick Beato called Japanese jazz musician Hiromi “the most electrifying pianist alive.”
Regarding the fusion of influences which can be heard in her music, Hiromi explains,
I don’t want to put a name on my music. Other people can put a name on what I do. It’s just the union of what I’ve been listening to and what I’ve been learning. It has some elements of classical music, it has some rock, it has some jazz, but I don’t need to give it a name.
Pendulum comes from Hiromi’s thirteenth studio album, Out There, released earlier this year:
Love seeing some quality jazz on here, Timothy. I enjoyed listening to this and will explore Hiromi’s other releases.
Love Hiromi! Thanks for highlighting her work. Here’s a favorite video of her playing the harp phenom Edmar Castaneda – prepare for electric! https://youtu.be/JiBeeM0gg9g?si=yj8fedids7YuXhBo
