about

Composer Koki Nakano presents his new collaborative EP Soft Sculptures.

Last September, during the Paris Fashion Week, the Japanese pianist Koki Nakano composed for the ISSEY MIYAKE Spring Summer 2023 collection A Form That Breathes and performed live at the show. Koki Nakano unveils today the original compositions in a digital EP format.

The designer of the brand Satoshi Kondo invited Koki Nakano to compose the music for the collection, which draws its inspiration from a series of sculpture studies.

Speaking about the collaboration, Kondo says, “As someone who has listened to Nakano-san’s music for many years, I am grateful to have worked with him on the collection. There is something I find so riveting and inspiring about his music, in that it engages the listeners’ senses in an immersive and affecting way. The way he interacts with the piano and digitally manipulates the sound is primitive and yet modern, which I find more so having watched his performance live.”
