Jun Miyake - Lost Memory Theatre Act-3 (2018)

The third album in a strikingly original trio of recordings by prolific multi-award-winning Japanese composer/trumpeter Jun Miyake. "Lost Memory Theatre is truly unique: it constantly produces that 'third thing' between music and imagery. You enter this space for the first time and you're already addicted to it." Wim Wenders. Artist, composer, songwriter, trumpeter, pianist in and around the Tokyo music scene; Jun Miyake has released twenty-seven albums across an eccentric array of styles; appeared as a guest soloist and served as a producer for numerous artists. He has also collaborated with contemporary dance and theatre pieces with Pina Bausch, Robert Wilson, Philippe Decouflé, as well as co-producing albums alongside Hal Willner, Vinicius Cantuaria and Arto Lindsay. With his ability to blend the most seemingly disparate elements of music, Miyake has achieved much respect throughout the world. His albums 'Stolen from Strangers', 'Lost Memory Theatre Act 1 + 2', have been selected as "best album of the year" by numerous European music magazines, and obtained the Grand Prix for the German Record Critics Award 2008, 2014 and 2015. He has been selected as "Man of 2009" by Galerie Lafayette Homme. Wim Wenders' film "Pina", for which Miyake contributed music, has been declared the "best documentary film" by the European film awards in 2011, and was nominated for the Academy Awards in 2012.
