Illuminated Baby for piano

Composer: Yamane, Akiko
Instrument: piano
Publisher: Schott Music
Description:
The music releases pieces of vivid sound one after another into the performance space. It is a baby’s march – right foot, left foot, step by step. Innocent, audaciously powerful and immature, the toddler walks planting each step firmly on the ground. Based on a constant beat, the music is deformed with digital and pop expressions. Cute and pop contents and textures are produced and consumed on a massive scale every day. I find beauty in such artificial textures around us. Into this piece of music I put my love and prayers for children and future generations to come. Akiko Yamane
