On the album “Nica's Dream” HIROKO❤️MIYAKE
Nica of Horace Silver's famous composition “Nica's Dream” is a jazz patroness, Mrs. Nica, who without thinking her position and made up her mind to move to New York, the Mecca of Jazz, by herself, and devotedly supported jazz musicians, to whom she dedicated many famous songs. I feel that her spirit of love and her way of life are important guidelines for us today.
I tried to express what I think are “various forms of love” in the 9 songs on the album. “Maddy Water,” the singer curses his partner with jealousy, which is also a form of love, and the Scottish folk song Auld lang syne with my lyrics, feels love that transcends time and dimension (the song is widely loved in Japan as “Fireflies' Light”). and the last song, “But Beautiful,” expresses the thoughts that lead to everything is beautiful.
Finally, I would like to thank the UNAMAS label for their engineering efforts in the production of this album.
