My piano piece was introduced as a piece about war and peace.
Works about peace
In a world marked by conflict, the theme of peace is more important than ever. Frank Martin’s oratorio In terra pax, composed at the end of the Second World War, stands as a powerful testament to the hope for unity and reconciliation. Music possesses the unique ability to bring people together, inspire reflection, and promote peace.

Kaori Nakano: A Sunflower Under The Blue Sky
Orchestration: for piano
Duration: 4’
This work was selected as 2nd place in the Rodrigo Landa-Romero International Composition Competition 2022 and performed by Rodrigo Landa-Romero.
We will never forget what started in February 2022. Sunflower dignifiedly looks up at the cannonballs and drones under the blue sky and endures the end.
“The colours created by the harmonies are quite unique, with very lyric melodies and interesting variations. The middle section has a Spanish-minimalistic feel that contrasts well with the main theme. A greatly achieved work overall”.
