Mao Fujita

Mao Fujita: 72 Preludes

£14.99

Released: 6th September 2024. Mao Fujita's recording crosses continents and eras with '72 Preludes'. Following his 'consistently impressive' (Gramophone) traversal of Mozart's complete 'Piano Sonatas' for Sony Classical - winner of an Opus Klassik Award - Japanese pianist Mao Fujita presents a similarly ambitious project: matching sets of 24 preludes by three composers, Frédéric Chopin, Alexander Scriabin and Akio Yashiro. In so doing, Fujita unites the Europe in which he now lives with the Japan where he was born and raised. The works incorporate a huge variety of moods and styles as their young composer explores varied harmonic and rhythmic devices with panache. Fujita likens the contents of his new recording to a refreshing but hearty sushi meal: 'If the Chopin and the Scriabin are the fish and the rice, the base, the Yashiro is the wasabi - just as vital, and with that special kick to create something delicious'.
