about

■ About the album:
Shingo Mimura's first solo piano album, "105 Years," is now available. In contrast to his previous magnificent and cinematic album, this new release is a calm and peaceful solo piano work.

Featuring ten soft pieces on muted piano, the songs were composed to be a companion to those seeking a quiet, peaceful life. Experience the moving music as if traveling with a prayer to explore the past and the future. In doing so, you’ll find the melodies to be filled with melancholy, fragility, and beauty tangled together like the sunlight filtering through the trees.

Our earnest hope is that the small voices and whispery tones in the album will reach the present world, that the quiet piano can somehow bring about a peaceful tomorrow throughout the troubled world.

■ Shingo Mimura Profile:
Based in Kobe, Japan, Shingo Mimura is a multi-talented producer, composer, arranger, pianist, bassist, and music director.

His music features soft piano and melodies mixed with beauty and fragility, and he is highly regarded for his visual and artistic expressiveness with large-scale arrangements that include strings.

His music has been featured in theaters, advertising video works, as well as background music for many games and events.

His first Album “Heart Sky Door” was released in Sep 2018 by PROGRESSIVE FOrM, a prestigious electronic music label in Japan. His second album “Two Dreams Flew Over A Pine Tree” was released in Nov 2021.

Shingo Mimura has played in concert halls, churches, important cultural properties, planetariums, and other venues. He performs in various styles, including solos and ensembles with strings.

In addition to his solo work, he is also a member of the ambient pop group “coconoe” formed by three musicians, Takayama Naoko, Kita Kouhei, and Shingo Mimura.
They released their first album “A Halo of Light One Day” in Dec 2019, and their second album “The Dolphins’ Long Dream” was released in Nov 2020.

■『105 years』 アルバム紹介
何気ない日常に寄り添うような、柔らかいミュートピアノによる10遍の小品。
穏やかな暮らしと平和を願い、祈りと共に過去と未来を行き来する。
ミムラシンゴ初のピアノソロアルバム"105 years"完成。

前作『Two Dreams Flew Over A Pine Tree』より約1年。
壮大かつシネマティックな作品に変わり、今作は穏やかでピースフルなピアノソロ作品となっている。

昨今の不安定な世界情勢により平和に、穏やかに暮らす事への緊張感は増すばかり。
小さな声、ささやかな音色こそ現在の世界に届いてほしい。
憂い、儚さ、美しさが木漏れ日のように絡み合うメロディ。
世界中に穏やかな明日が訪れる事を願う、静かなピアノミュージックが誕生しました。
