Fumitake Ezaki releases his first album "Hajimari no Yoru" piano trio version featuring Shuntaro Tsuneta and Sonoko Muraoka

It has been announced that Fumitake Ezaki will release a piano trio version of his first album, “Hajimari no Yoru,” on Friday, May 31st.

It’s been exactly one year since the release of “Hajimari no Yoru” last year. Not only did he play the muted piano and synthesizer, but he also composed and arranged the entire album, and this time he has reconstructed the album with violinist Shuntaro Tsuneta and cellist Sonoko Muraoka. The new expression of the songs on the theme of “In Praise of Shadows” has been brought out, making it a gentle instrumental album that will accompany you every day.

All recording was done at STUDIO Dede, and recording and mixing were done by Yu Sasaki. The original album “Hajimari no Yoru” is scheduled to be released on vinyl on July 24th (). This will be Ezaki’s first solo work to be released on analog.
