Profile

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.

輪郭は光に溶けて消えていく

ふたつの惑星は弧を描き

めいめいに音を放ち今を記した

そのすれちがいざま熱を帯び

弾けた火花は星となり

ただ日常の雲の上静かに佇み煌めいた

微かな光の交わるところ

ふたひの儚日昨年神戸にて開催された「オールスターオルガンフェスティバル」（Atelier pianopia主催）にて初共演した二人の音楽家。「オルガン」という共通点以外は異なる世界で活躍していた二人のサウンドは、まるで出会うことが約束されていたかのように不思議なほど共鳴し、溶け合った。本公演は、その時ともったあかりを大切にあたためてきた待望のコンサート。今回の公演ではピアノ、ギターと歌を中心に旧グッゲンハイム邸に息づく明治期のオルガン、フランスとインドのヴィンテージハルモニウム など、様々な楽器と共に共演します、神戸の海辺に佇む歴史ある洋館で一夜限りのコラボレーションをお楽しみください。

In February 2017, the music group, B4gakudan, joined me for the recording of the soundtrack of the NHK-BS Premium TV series, Nippon Jyuudan Kokorotabi. From working together we decided to plan a special collaborative concert performance! B4gakudan’s original songs, along with my own songs, have been rearranged to include each of our instruments. The singer, Ayako Ikeda, will also be a part of the show as a guest, and will sing the TV show’s theme song, Kokoro Tabi, and hit song, Ashita he no Tegami. For anyone who is a fan of Kokoro Tabi or its music, please come and enjoy this special night!
