[2012.10.03] Matsui Sakiko 1st solo piano album "Kokyuu Suru Piano"

[moehajiru]

Sometimes i want to listen to her compositions like "Time Goes By"  at Teppen.


I wish there was one or two songs that could represent the character / style Sakiko in playing the piano.

Note 1:

The NINKI ratings are the results of a POLL conducted by Oricon indicating degree of interest/degree of purchase intention in an upcoming release. Although the ratings are never a true reflection of sales, it does give a strong prediction about where the single/album will place in terms of popularity amongst the Japanese public. However, they are NOT an indication of how it will perform in terms of chart positioning and total sales for the week.

Note 2:

According to Oricon's note under the NINKI page, Oricon researches about 870,000 of its members by random sampling of 400 members in their 10s until 40s. 50 men and 50 women are chosen randomly to participate in each age group. (However, some popular artists have had NINKI exceeding 500, so we can only assume that Oricon has extended the polling to around 600/700 people now.)

I'm considering in buying this, I do like my pianos

I couldn't resists and grabbed the early leak of the album...

I won't comment on the new arrangements to avoid spoilers, but I'll say this: SO GOOD!
It shows AKB48's songs are very well written, but it also shows Sakiko has heaps of skill.
I was afraid the Mozart piece at the end would look out of place, but it really doesn't.

This album turned out better than I could have ever imagined. I'll be listening to it a lot for sure.
Congrats and massive props to Matsui for such a strong debut
