In Act City Hamamatsu Concert Hall, a place that holds wonderful memories, I undertook the first recording I have ever made. These are the expressive and moving works that I performed in the Hamamatsu International Piano Competition, including the Schubert Sonata D 894, a work that changed my life. I am very happy to present a miraculously beautiful musical world that is extremely important to me.

I am thankful to have had the opportunity to make this recording in such a splendid setting. It is my sincere hope that the music will touch the hearts of many people.
