Masako Kunisada “With Me”

A memorial of her own personality that carved the monologue of the soul unique to playing

Masako Kunisada, a singer who builds her own world view with natural vocalizations and expressions linked to individuality.  The new work is full of immersive content that makes use of its straight and spiritual singing.  At first, it wasn’t just about “playing and talking”, but she seemed to have had a chance to “do” even with a band formation like the previous work.  I mean, she can do it together (any band). Even if the other party comes in a buzz, she can match it. However, it becomes boring on the way. It’s done, but this means  As a result of thinking “I wonder if there is one (laughs)”, she chose “a narration that can put my soul into the song” at her own pace and started recording.  In her own words, the song selection is “in the middle”, but it is for those who are interested in music in general, not for those who go to jazz clubs to listen to standard songs.  It can be said that “Masako Kunisada’s uniqueness” is expressed.  At the moment when she made the last note of the bar in the piano performance of the interlude, “I was fooled and I was just stunned and my hand fell on the keyboard with a poron. But that’s so good”.  We would like you to listen to the “Inochi no Uta” in this album with a humor in your mind.
