I almost had a mini-heart attack when I accidentally hit the "dislike" button after favoriting the video. I thought I was going to be that guy, but luckily you can hit the "like" button and it changes it. Lucky me!
Buy her "Live at the Blue Note" video to see her joking around with "The Gambler". I wouldn't spoil it, but she's one funny girl. On top of everything else. Hiromi wouldn't be Hiromi without her sense of humour (and her flashes of anger for that matter).
It's odd to watch her in a big hall like here and the Marciac videos, and then in a room like the Blue Note. She seems more suited for the big hall. Her energy is too much for a small room.
I play piano, I've been to Japan, I've been studying Japanese for about a year and a half and have listened to countless Japanese musicians. Yet somehow this beautiful little insane orchid slipped through my fingers. After I stopped convulsing on the floor after hearing this I thought to myself, I need a cigarrete. Then all I could muster was a "Fucken A".
This is her answer to all the critics that say she just plays randomly; a symphonic piece in three movements, Show City, Show Girl; Daytime in Las Vegas and Finally The Gambler. I can't stop smiling. Too bad it was in such a big hall. The audience didn't get it. They were looking for Tom and Gerry and got this tour de force.
We have one word for this: rasfak! I don't think it's in any dictionary. But we use this word sometimes when somebody really really really, I mean REALLY REALLY REALLY RULES
When I watch this I worry about repetitive strain injury in the years to come....and I can't bear the idea of a future without her playing the soundtrack to me life.
@goldensleeves No, it's not Smoke on the water; it's Maria Quiet. Feel free to check out the version with Astrud Gilberto here on youtube watch?v=cgIls71_Gmo
To me, this is the essential Hiromi. She's a show girl herself, quoting stuff all over the place. The perfect blend of entertainment and creative genius.

@junhax I suggest Hiromi's Sonicbloom! It's the best 15$ I ever spent.

I totally adore Hiromi, I think she's the best jazz piano player nowadays and that's one great piece of music. Very impressive and picture creating.

Ms. Uehara is a visual composer. She writes what she sees. How did you like her slot machine in this piece?

これは実際に見に行ったし、その後表参道ヒルズの握手会と生演奏にも行きましたが、この人とドリカムには共通点がある。
それはボレロのメロディのように人を扇動することができるパワーと才能をもっていることだろう。
そして、私は上記の２人なら喜んで扇動されたいと願う。
