Akira Kosemura
When Akira Kosemura started making music, it was a kind of therapy during his difficult time in his early 20s. He carried an audio recorder to capture the soundscape he encountered, and those field recordings inspired him to create music with his piano. “My original reason for making it, after all, was to heal myself, a kind of rehabilitation technique and it is still part of my everyday life, or perhaps an extension of it. It’s like breathing for me” he recalls. Since his record debut in 2007, Kosemura’s compositions have been reflecting his inner voice, and drawing various images silently and beautifully – from quiet nights, four seasons, to some stories about unknown people in unknown world. He garnered attention worldwide, collaborated with notable musicians such as John Legend and Devendra Banhart, and created scores for films/TV drama/video games like the Cannes featured film True Mothers, Hollywood produced drama series Love Is__, the Nintendo Switch game Jack Jeanne, TV anime Honey Lemon Soda, and so many others. Completely self-taught composer/pianist has become one of the most streamed Asian classical artists, has signed Decca Records/Universal Music in 2022, and released diverse records including his renowned solo piano album, SEASONS. Now in 2025, Kosemura looks at a new direction. MIRAI is his first-ever vocal project album featuring 7 notable singers - Devendra Banhart, Mr Hudson, Baths, Benjamin Gustafsson, Saro, Tom Adams, and Miyuki Hatakeyama.
