DISCOGRAPHY
Beethoven Complete PianoSonatas & Piano Concertos

P RO F I L E
Ikuyo Nakamichi is one of Japan’s most sought-after pianists. Inmusic she finds the divine, the intimate—even empathy—and canuniquely infuse them into the sound and expression of the piano.
Her wide-ranging repertoire includes a special focus on the worksof Beethoven. She has performed six full cycles of and recorded all
the Piano Sonatas and all the Piano Concertos with the Deutsche
Kammerphilharmonie Bremen under the baton of Paavo Järvi.
Nakamichi’s passions also extend to period instruments, and sheherself owns several historical pianofortes. In some concerts, she plays
both pianoforte and modern piano, a rare feat. Her deeply informed
approach has earned her high standing among musicologists.
Years living as a teenager in the United States greatly influenced Nakamichi’s personality as a musician. Later study inGermany enhanced her deep appreciation of European traditionsin classical music. Ultimately it may be the attention to detail andsubtle nuance that her Japanese heritage brings to her playingthat attracts people to her concert and recorded performances.
Among the numerous awards Nakamichi has won are the top
prize in the 42nd Geneva International Music Competition, FirstPrize at the Felix Mendelssohn Competition and the Fifth Prize in
the Queen Elisabeth International Music Competition of Belgium.
In 2005 she performed with the English Chamber Orchestra tohigh acclaim for a wedding celebration concert at Windsor Castle
held in honor of Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall.
Additionally Nakamichi was soloist with many prestigious
orchestras including the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen,
the Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra, the Pittsburgh SymphonyOrchestra, Rundfunk Sinfonieorchester Berlin, and Symphonie­
orchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks. Among the many celebrated
conductors she has worked with are Rafael Frühbeck de Burgos,
Paavo Järvi, Lorin Maazel, Jukka-Pekka Saraste, and Pinchas
Zukerman. She is also a devoted chamber musician, collaboratingwith clarinetist Richard Stoltzman, the Berlin Philharmonic Octet,
the Brandis Quartet, the Gewandhaus Quartet, and the Hagan
Quartet, along with many others.
Nakamichi has an exclusive recording contract with SonyMusic Japan. Among her more than 30 CD releases are the complete Beethoven and Mozart Piano Sonatas.
Paying special attention to the role a musician should play insociety, Nakamichi organized, is music director and supervisor of“Music for Our Future,” a group that strives to cultivate appreciation
and understanding of music with the aim of empowering it to contribute directly to society and the resolution of social issues.
The focus of her recent activities is the enormous project “TheRoad to 2027,” which began in 2018 and consists of 20 recitalprograms that reflect her great vision and personal philosophy ofpiano performance. To this end Nakamichi has already commenced
concertizing throughout Japan, in Los Angeles as well as New York.

This set contains Beethoven’s 32 Piano
Sonatas and 5 Piano Concertos recorded
over the four years between 2003 and2006. For the Concertos, Nakamichi collabo­
rates with Paavo Järvi and the Deutsche
Kammerphilharmonie Bremen. 2 DVDs ofcomplete performances of Concertos No.
5 “Emperor” and No. 3 are also included.

“he Road to 2027” consists of a vast seriesof piano recitals that have a very specialmeaning for me and present ideas that I treasure
deeply in music when I perform. By following thispath I believe I will be able to cultivate my craft
and fully display my artistry.
Two threads run through these twenty programs. One is the exploration of philosophicalideas of music through rhetorical interpretationsof Beethoven’s towering Piano Sonatas. Throughthis series I believe we can discover new insightsthat may in turn bring us closer to the meaning oflife itself.
The second thread is the sharpening of oursenses through a specific selection of piano pieces
that call for a variety of techniques and the various
acoustic nuances they produce. Together theseworks impart the unique feeling of being immersedin the full range of sonority while testing the limits
of expression of the piano.
I invite you to set out upon this thrilling journey with me on “The Road to 2027.”

Mozart Complete Piano Sonatas
Through her detailed readings of the scores,
Nakamichi brings out a flawless senseof freedom and the heights of emotional
power in Mozart’s music. This recording
includes the composer’s 18 Piano Sonatas,
Fantasias, Rondos, Variations, and the“Adagio for Glassharmonica”, an exquisite
small gem among Mozart’s opus.

Chopin LIVE at Suntory Hall
Filmed live in concert at Suntory Hall Tokyo celebrating
Chopin’s 200th birthday, Nakamichi performs a varietyof his piano solo works ranging from Waltzes, Etudes,and Ballades, to the monumental Third Sonata.

Chopin Waltzes
In this recording, Nakamichi performs the same 17
Waltzes both on a historical Pleyel piano built in 1842,
and on a modern Steinway. The striking contrast ofsonority and articulation between these two different
instruments shows the universality of Chopin’s music.

Schumann Fantasie
Recorded in Berlin and released in celebration of the30th anniversary of Nakamichi’s debut as a professional
pianist, this album captures her deep understanding ofSchumann’s two masterpieces: the Symphonic Etudes
and the Fantasie.
