Profile

Soichiroh Shigematsu ( pianist / composer / improviser)

Born in 1973, in Osaka, he grew up in Yokohama, Japan. Travelling around the country playing only his own original compositions, Soso touches the hearts of young and old with his unique sound. He’s an independent artist playing about a hundred concerts a year, but hasn’t signed to any major record label, which is quite rare for a professional musician in Japan. His music is the sound of love for every life form, however small. It’s “symbiotic music” for people and nature, and all living things. When Soso plays it’s as if the hearts of every single person in the audience are reflected in his sound, which resonates through to the depths of our modern day minds. He also organizes ecology and peace events in borderless collaboration with other artists from genres such as art, literature and food. He toured the U.S.A. several times (New York, Iowa), and also played in Australia (Melbourne), Thailand (Bangkok), Italy (Firenze, Puglia), Nederland and Belgium.
