about

Recorded at Arcadia West, Los Angeles, the American avant-garde composer William Basinki crafted an eerie piano rework of Japanese voice artist Hatis Noit's piece 'Inori', taken from her acclaimed debut Aura ahead of Piano Day 2023.

"I was honored to be asked to reinterpret this beautiful prayer by Hatis Noit. Reading her notes about Inori, I decided to use the beautiful piano that came with my home I was able to purchase in 2018. Home is my favorite place to be, as an indoorsman. Piano, to me, represents home.

Imagining her natural trepidation under the circumstances, and feeling sympathy with the people in Fukushima who just wanted to go home, I wanted to step delicately, in support with love and empathy and let her beautiful voice resonate to the heavens."

— William Basinski, Los Angeles, February 28, 2023
