*2023 stock* "The four works for piano recorded on this CD were written between 2017 and 2021. All were composed using a random number method. More precisely, each of the sonic components of sounds made from random numbers was changed, based on my own sensibility, into another sound that I was happy with. This transformation was carried out little by little every day, like writing in a diary, resulting in the creation of each individual sound. I always write similar things in explanatory notes about my work, but when performing or hearing from start to finish these sounds created from random numbers, the music loses its directionality, its time stands still, and one's ears are opened up not to the music as a whole but rather to each individual moment of sound. I always hope they will be sounds that awaken memories in each listener." - Taizo Hida
