Yuri Yamada - "Luire"

After the rain, drawn by the light streaming in through the window, I went outside. The clear sky, a sight I hadn't seen in a while, was dazzling, the water surface shone even brighter, and the plants stood peacefully, as if content.
Dusk illuminated the darkened room, a different light from the morning.
On the way home, a feeling of rain again.
Dancing beneath the rain, surely the raindrops will sparkle.

"Luire" by pianist yuri yamada is a sequel and counterpart to her previous work, "Ame no Hikari" (Light of Rain). "Luire" is a French word meaning "to shine" or "to glow." The melodies born from the pianist's fingertips dance as if traversing through the transmitting light, flowing water, the circulating order of the world and its beauty, and the inner folds of the human heart that respond to them. Light, emotions, scenery. A world of sound where the listener's consciousness naturally turns towards things that cannot be touched but are undeniably there.

Following the previous work, the mixing and mastering are handled by Suguru Ohba of no.9 orchestra. The artwork, rich in color and clearly indicating its status as a sequel to "Ame no Hikari," continues to be created by Junkyu Iida.

With its gold foil title and folding jacket design, this work is the culmination of teamwork that allows the listener to tangibly experience the artistry and world view of pianist yuri yamada through the product itself.
