Business Overview

In today's limited equipment environment, we will explore and innovate the diversity of the two-piano composition. We asked Masai Yamazaki to commission new works, and while focusing on his works, we also featured works by Mozart, Chabrier, Rachmaninoff, and Naotada Odaka. By looking at works by composers from a wide range of periods, from classical to modern, and from a variety of countries, I will show a new way to expand the two-piano repertoire.
