I'm not the person in videos on my channel. She's renowned but under-represented Japanese jazz pianist & composer Riyoko Takagi 高木里代子 (@riyopiano riyoko.jp). I know a musical genius when I hear one, so Riyo turned this engineer into a music researcher. This "gold mine" of a channel is the result and dedicated to this magnificent independent artist and her fans. Here you will find an abundance of live Riyo content I streamed and recorded and transcriptions. I had a pleasure of spending unforgettable time with Riyo in June 2024 during her visit to NY. I also confirmed my long suspicion and the source behind her natural talent & spontaneity - a unique case of auditory-visual color-profile-varying mood-controlled synesthesia. Yes, Riyo sees music in colors that change based on her mood.
Check playlists on this channel's "home" for lots of Riyo's live performances and "community" tab for other Riyo content.
You can follow Riyo's socials from her official multi-lingual website riyoko.jp.
