Free Music Notes for PianoFree Music Review: Awesome Cd for Those Who Love Solo Piano Hit: 5 Stars
This is an awesome CD! I play piano myself and love listening to pianists who compose their own straight - solo - piano, and Ms. Matsui has created an OUTSTANDING MASTERPIECE in this cd! A friend, who also plays and composes for the piano - heard this cd playing and was also intriqued. He thanked me profusely after I gave him a copy for Christmas and he had listened to it. He thinks its awesome, too. I would compare Matsui's music to Kostia, another artist who writes for the piano. (If you like this cd, check out Kostia's cd's, too.) I have listened to Matsui's other cd's and, to my disappointment, find they are mostly highly electronic and orchestrated. I WISH Ms. Matsui would do more SOLO PIANO cds. In my opinion, it is more impressive to have solo piano and have it sound this good. There are so many artists out there today who are producing new age cd's with so much orchestration. Ms. Matsui is a rare and unique talent whether doing music with accompaniment or not, I hope she will do more solo piano works. She is a stand out. If you love solo piano, you must listen to this cd! The music is phenomenal.
Free Music Review: Thrilling! Hit: 5 Stars
From the very first track I got captured by the magical notes coming from Keiko's piano. To me, this album is like a dreamy soundtrack for a japanese movie, something like Spirited away. I can imagine myself going thu a green forest, climbing a sacred mountain or looking a shining frozen lake. Don't get me wrong, I don't think this is background music. Each note, each detail, each tempo change is intentionated and played soulfully, and you have to be focused to perecevie these subtle changes and rythm variations. I'm not a pianist but I can say when some one is good.
"The piano" by Keiko matsui is a good example of what I expect from an artist: To be technically skilled, be honest with his art, and play with the heart. I'm giving this CD a 5 star rating beacuse it deserves it. Keiko, you have a new fan here. Highly recommended.
PS: Just a little recommendation that worked great fro me. If you got a home theater, use the HALL (reverb) function to enhance the "ambience" of the songs. Listen to it with a pair of good headhones too, you'll get surprised !
Free Music Review: Amazing Hit: 5 Stars
Keiko Matsui is an Amazing Artist. Her music is Magical and moves you through
a plethora of visions, emotions and feelings. Her Music is unique,a mix of Jazz, Pop and classic. When I have a "creative Block" from time to time, I put on one of her CD's and I get my creative insight back. I usually play her CD's
when I know my clients are coming to my studio. I was looking on Amazon.com
trying to find a friend's new album to read the reviews.I then clicked on the type of music I like, and I found Keiko Matsui. I am so happy that this site lets us hear the music to see if we like it. I bought three of her CD's and will buy more of her CD's.
Free Music Review: LOVE THIS CD Hit: 5 Stars
Hi everyone,
I brought this cd for my husband because he is taking piano lessons and he likes certain cds with the piano instrument only. I never brought Ms. Matsui cd and because I am too a fan of the piano, I wanted to try her cd. To my suprise, I liked it and so did my husband. I would definitely will be buying more of her cds. I also want to see her in concert.

I heard an excerpt from this CD on the radio and immediately purchased it.
The entire CD is terrific; Both soothing unaccompanied piano and some adventurous accompanied pieces. I hope Keiko gets the recognition she deserves. 2 thumbs up on this one !
