About the CD Hit It!
The most recent gem will come out in 2014, as a result of long, keen, inexhaustible work. On the record we find a great number of interesting and special pieces, all of which pose daunting challenges for the musician both in terms of technique and music.
The interpretation of the pieces by the pianist, Naomi Kimura, reveals unbelievable precision and musical sensitivity. Naomi Kimura is a soloist and university instructor herself.
