Harmony Beyond Music – Outsiders

Reiko Fujisawa (piano) fuses the sensibilities of a musician raised in the Far East who trained in the West. She has appeared at venues and festivals all over the UK and overseas including Wigmore Hall, Purcell Room, King’s Place, Stoller Hall, Brighton Festival and Hebden Bridge Piano Festival, and was a featured artist at the Japan 2001 Festival. Reiko has broadcast on BBC Radio 3 and her recordings include an acclaimed CD of music by Bach, Beethoven and Schubert, which The Arts Desk found “irresistible”. Her recording of Bach’s Goldberg Variations also received a glowing review from The Record Geijutsu, Japan’s equivalent to The Gramophone, describing it as an “unpretentious, clean and refreshing performance with a refined dignity”.

 

 

Royal Philharmonic Orchestra Wind Ensemble. A rare treat for audiences, this ensemble of principal wind players of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in collaboration with Reiko Fujisawa first appeared together during the inaugural season at Cadogan Hall in 2006 and have since performed together around the world.
