Hiromi?
Who?
I hadn’t heard her music nor even heard of her until I stumbled across this video. I stumble across, fall into, so much fabulous music this way. I was gobsmacked, grabbed, by her brilliance and sheer exuberance.
Never! Absolutely never, have I heard music remotely like this and I mean this in an immensely positive way.
Pachelbel can never have been played like this!
Pachelbel with guts!
After this build-up I would be disappointed if you didn’t love this too but I must be realistic: some will love and some won’t.
Sit back for 8m 30s of ……
Pachelbel: Canon in D Hiromi
I did tell you! Hiromi is brilliant.
Need to listen to this again? I can’t get enough of Hiromi!

Wonderful. Thanks very much Calum.
Wow!
She is amazing!
Somehow I didn't know you listened to the music posts.
Occasionally. I am actually a complete piano fanatic, all classical stuff and some jazz. I have not listened much recently though. I go through phases (don't we all?).
Do you play the piano?
I actually do play it but I can't play it. Mum was a good player and I could spend hours entertaining myself with wild and mad creations, but I can't play anything by anyone else, and so, I guess the short answer, the version of answer I always tend to avoid, is "no".
Love it, love it, love it...
I actually play the Canon, but never like this. Maybe I should try????
I hope you don't mind, Calum. I shared this with my Facebook friends. Thank you for the fantastic post!

Never a 'short' when there is a 'long' :)

She is abs brilliant. Of course, there's no problem with sharing. Blogposts, in general, are for sharing but music like this: tell the rest of the world who haven't found it yet.
In return, I offer:

Forgot how to embed in comments but a copy and paste should work
A great offering, Andrew. Hadn't heard (of) him.
Will look into his music.
@Andrew - As Calum says. Very interesting. Thank you!
