Profile | Biography

平井真美子平井真美子

京都府出身。桐朋学園大学音楽学部ピアノ科卒業。
誰の心にも去来する想いを綴るような、親しみやすく美しく前向きなメロディー。また時に深く、静的でも動的でもある生きたメロディーが幅広く共感を得る。加えて音楽に命を吹き込む高い演奏表現力を兼ね揃え、クリエイター達からの厚い信頼の下、映画・CM・TV番組等の音楽を多数手がける。
日々の想いをメロディーにトランスレートして書き綴る "Piano Diary" をライフワークとし、2013年4月 Piano Diary シリーズ2作目のオリジナル・ピアノアルバム「夢の途中」を発表 。近年、アーチストへの楽曲提供も行っている。
2012年 新進気鋭のアーティストに贈られるアメリカの S&R Washington Award 受賞。
2017年 ワシントンD.C.にて歴史古い National Cherry Blossom Festival のオープニングアクトの作曲・出演を務めた。

Mamiko majored in piano at Toho Gakuen Music High School and also Toho Gakuen College in Tokyo. Today she works with a wide spectrum of artists, creators, and musicians to compose and perform musical melodies that best illustrate and evoke emotions reflective of the most memorable moments of life.

She has composed music for the film and television industry, and focuses on her solo piano concerts, creating a series of albums containing her "Piano Diary". They are psychological portraits via the piano, taking a closer look at the very essence of the soul and inner being. They are an artistic expression of the whim of the heart, provoking nostalgia, deep emotions, and a sentimental feeling relative to all. Her most recent album, Towards a Dream, was released in the spring of 2013.

Mamiko's works have been recognized internationally and in 2012 she received the S&R Washington Award. She has also composed and performed for the opening ceremony of the 2017 National Cherry Blossom Festival in Washington DC.

Mamiko is now based in Tokyo and is seeking opportunities to further expand globally. She hopes that this website can provide a place for people to experience some of her music, style, and imagery.

とあるひ 2023 初夏

秋のはじまりにまたひとつうれしいお知らせです。

「とあるひ2023初夏」
ATELIER MUJI GINZAにて開催された「綴」-つづる展- Weaving the path of WONDER FULL LIFE の会場音楽として発表させていただいた音の作品のダウンロード販売が始まりました。


2023年5月、6月。さまざまなジャンルのつくり手たちが対話や制作の場としているWONDER FULL LIFEの鎌倉アトリエに通い、アトリエに隣接する母屋で子供たちが弾くグランドピアノや、運びこんだ愛楽器の古い足踏みオルガンを奏で過ごした日々を記録。

制作を共にする人々の話す声や時折聴こえる笑い声、母屋の生活音、小鳥の囀りや木々が風にたなびく音や気配を感じながら、2023年初夏、その日その時その一瞬にしかない響きを綴りました。

とある季節の記憶が、こうして形になることをとても嬉しく思います。

「とあるひ2023初夏」

2時間23分の空白を綴る音の集まり。

寄り添うでもなく

語るでもなく

そこにただ在る音たちが

それぞれの暮らしの中で見え隠れしながら

重なっていくことができたなら。

＿weaving the path of talisman

アーティスト大脇千加子さんの手によって紡がれたタリスマンが佇む空間に身を置き、そのささやきに誘われるように生まれてきた音のアートピース。創作の日は、折に触れ向き合っている”自我”が解かれるようなひとときだったと感じています。

鳥たちの囀る声、galleryの前を通る車両、木漏れ日が窓を撫で、誰かがヒソヒソ耳打ちをしている

あの時間の中に居合わせたすべての気配が鍵盤の音色と混ざり合う。

巡り巡ってあるべき場所へ。
“音のタリスマン”。
あの日紡いだ音がみなさんの暮らしと溶け合うことを願いながら。

『とあるひ演奏会』

“文博”こと京都文化博物館別館ホールにて『とあるひ演奏会』を開催することになりました。

2006年にはじめて京都文化博物館別館ホールで演奏会をしてから、数えて１０度目の独奏公演。 以来毎年のように帰る場所となった私にとっては文字通り”ふるさと”のような空間。コロナがあり数年お休みを挟みましたが、昨年久しぶりに文博で演奏会ができ、今年もまたご案内ができる運びとなりました。

節目の１０回目。

これまでずっと演奏してきたホールにあるグランドピアノとアトリエピアノピアの工房からお借りする古い鍵盤楽器を渡り弾きながら、この4月に発表した新しいアルバム「とあるひ記録集」に収めた曲を中心に、これまで、そしてこれからのわたしの音を重ねながら演奏できればと思っています。

エシカルフェスタ2023

2023年11月23日（木・祝）、一般社団法人エシカル協会と聖心女子大学グローバル共生研究所の共催で開催される「エシカルフェスタ2023」の特別トークショー会場にて、空間伴奏を担当させていただきました。

たくさんの方といま分かち合いたい『リジェネラティブ（環境再生）』をテーマに、この日は多様な分野のマーケットやワークショップが開催されたり、特別トークショーでは「大地の再生、森の再生、人間の再生」の3つのパートに分けて、世代や専門の垣根を超えたゲストの方々のクロストークが展開。
そのトーク会場で、空間伴奏と称し普段から親しんでいる山の裾野でフィールドレコーディングした環境音や、修復された古い鍵盤楽器、拾った珊瑚や落ち葉、など有機的かつ多彩な音で空間音楽を奏でます。さまざまな分野でお話される皆さんの物語に、その日にしかない響きで交わらせていただきました。

空間伴奏：平井真美子
音響：Flysound Co.

新しい旅の道中でまたきっと、催しや音楽を通して皆さんと境のない時間を過ごせることを願ってます。
また会うその日まで、GO ETHICAL♪
