[Taichi Chishaki/Comment]
This is the first in a series that uses piano and strings. “Peractorum” means nostalgia in Latin. This work combines nostalgic composition techniques with modern sound effects, and is a song in the EP, featuring asymmetry. The idea behind the work is based on feelings experienced in the past, and the strings are written in a way that envelops the piano, which plays minimalistic rhythms, as a supporting role. This is the first personal released song by Taichi Chishaki to incorporate strings.
The nostalgic yet warm piano tones and strings that give a sense of the scene are impressive.
I hope you will experience Taichi Chishaki’s new worldview.
Taichi Chishaki’s “Peractorum I” is now available on various streaming and download sites.
