Spectrum celebrates the maturity and depth that have enriched Hiromi’s composing and playing over the course of her 30s, years in which she’s crisscrossed the globe thrilling audiences and embarked on collaborations with some of jazz’s most inventive artists, including Chick Corea, Stanley Clarke, Michel Camilo, Anthony Jackson, Simon Phillips, Steve Smith, Akiko Yano and Edmar Castañeda.

"My first piano teacher always taught me to see colors through music. When she wanted me to play something expressive or fiery, she colored the score paper with red pencil; when she wanted me to play something melancholic or sad, she would color my score with blue pencil. I thought it was fascinating because the piano itself is mostly black and white – the keys, the finish – but it can create so many colors." - Hiromi

白と黒の鍵盤が紡ぐ、無限の色彩。
『プレイス・トゥ・ビー』(2009年)以来10年ぶりとなるソロ・ピアノ・アルバム。”色彩”をテーマに書き下ろされた新曲7曲に加え、ザ・ビートルズ「ブラックバード」とジョージ・ガーシュウィン「ラプソディ・イン・ブルー」のカヴァーを収録。かつてない美しいピアノの響きと、圧倒的なスケール感と深みを感じさせるパフォーマンス。ピアニストとしても作編曲家としても、さらなる高みに達したことを証明する、上原ひろみのキャリア最高傑作。

Never thought I'd see her perform this at the Tokyo Olympics opening ceremony. She is always amazing!

[thingsbachelorsknow]

There are experts. There are masters. And then the transcendent. She transcends. It's as if the piano is not enough. It's beneath her. She owns it. Once in a lifetime talent. Perhaps like Mozart time will remember her as one of the greats.

初めてひろみさんのコンサート観に行きました。







絶対また観に行きます

[mattarciuolo]

I have been performing what I thought was great music for the past 20 years but when I saw this, I just wanted to end it all.
I don't care who you put up, Tatum, Peterson, Cziffra, Tyner, Corea (who she plays with), (yeah...she's in that league), her technique and chops are unsurpassed. Would never mean to demean those that come before her but she plays effortlessly, emotionally and joyfully and mark my words, she will be among the most elite keyboard players that have ever lived. Too much???? I don't think so.

[Dr.KevinZhang]

Suffice it to say that jazz is changing with her, it's a music we've never heard, yes she's changing jazz, making it more diverse and deeper

[ricks]

Stunning and startling. Hiromi’s attack is unparalleled. An historic talent.

[joshuaatkinson]

So glad that the world hasn’t ended before I could discover this...

[haze_desire]

Hiromi, Great perfomance in Olympic ceremony!

[yalmahond]

DIFFERENT PLANET. DIFFERENT PLANET THIS LADY

[thewingbeats]

Hiromi wins the Nobel Prize for Physics - for presenting the spectrum of the whole universe using binary black and white keys! :)

“Spectrum”

暖かい室内光(白色光)から
Prismを通して分光される移ろい

ColorやBrightnessの”状態”ではなく、
光の直進性や複屈折する”動き”を、
単数形のspectrumで表してるのかも。

[木村圭-zd]

2019Japan tour札幌公演行ってきました‼
一曲目のカレイドスコープの一音目で鳥肌立ちましたわ‼
本当凄かった‼また行きたい‼

[iamchristianlopez]

It's ridiculous how she can keep that left hand riff going on while doing swing at the other. Wild.

[skane]

Here Hiromi blends her spectacular musicianship with a visual feast akin to crème brûlée for the eyes. I would travel half way round the earth to see her play live.❤

[basswanderer]

I think Hiromi is the best pianist I have ever seen and she's the best on the planet. I'd love to see her live some day.

[Ye_Chan]

올림픽 개회식 보는데 히로미님 나오셔서 얼마나 반갑고 가슴이 웅장해지던지 … 크~~

[iestynne]

Came here from the Olympics. This is one of the best things I've ever heard. What a marvel.

[PawsAndKeys]

She is so good she makes me mad, and so ludicrously good she makes me happy. Am I even a piano player? She makes me doubt everything.

[pennica.illegale]

I've discovered Hiromi by chance while I was perusing a music shop here in town. Her album was sitting prettily on a stand and it looked so colorful and fun I bought it on a whim. I'm a total stranger to Jazz music, I have close to no knowledge of it; I've never even really listened to it.
When I got home and listened to the CD I couldn't believe how grateful I was for having purchased it! Hiromi's music is fun and engaging and I fell in love with it instantly! Her personality shines through, I can't get enough of her!

[kibu]

Seen her live yesterday in Zurich. A living legend. All the great piano players of all times will dedicate the throne in the hall of fame to her.
