Dai Miyata, a cellist who represents Japan both in name and reality. He won the Rostropovich International Competition for the first time as a Japanese, and in 2021 he won the "OPUS KLASSIK" award, one of the prestigious awards in the European classical world. Sold out one after another.
The long-awaited new album includes Rachmaninoff's cello sonata, which Dai Miyata himself says is "my favorite cello sonata." Over the past 10 years, Dai Miyata has co-starred with the pianist Julien Gernet, whom he trusts. In addition, the 18th variation from Rachmaninov's "Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini" and Kapustin's works are also included in the coupling.

“I have recorded Rachmaninov’s cello sonata, which has many memories and is my favorite cello sonata. It brings me to tears every time I play it. When I endure "loneliness", I rub one remaining match and a small flame appears, and I feel that even that small flame expresses the feeling of "heartfelt warmth, happiness, and happiness." It is a masterpiece with a unique charm, with a beautiful melody that hides and hides the melancholy. It also features original pieces for cello and piano composed by Kapustin, who was also a jazz pianist. ”
