LOS ANGELES — Japanese rock icon Yoshiki will digitally release his new album “Yoshiki Classical” on Aug 27. The album is a collaboration between Yoshiki, legendary Beatles producer Sir George Martin, the London Philharmonic Orchestra, the Tokyo City Philharmonic Orchestra and the Quartet San Francisco.
The end result is a symphonic collection driven by soaring strings, smart piano pieces and the melodic style of Yoshiki’s earlier work. The hard copy release will be Sept 24.
“I began taking piano lessons and music theory at age four, and became interested in classical works by Beethoven and Schubert,” Yoshiki said. “In elementary school, I played the trumpet in the brass band, and around age 10 started composing songs for piano. I’ve been writing classical music ever since. Needless to say, classical music has been a major influence in my musical career including X Japan. I’m so excited to finally share my classical compositions that are very close to my heart with my fans around the world.”
