Artist statement
My specialty is composition and improvisation. I write and play songs based on my experiences and thoughts. As a pianist, I think my music is unique because I am the only one who knows what intention the song was written and what the story was about.
Ambitions
I like myself as a musician, but I want to be an artist who collaborates with people in other fields. I think I can expose myself in many ways.
In the future, I want to write more songs based on what I feel and experience, and I want to be a person who consistently performs and releases music with other performers.
Learned during the studies
I think it is most important to have confidence without doubt about my musicality or artistry. This helped me perform, compose, and do many projects.

Playing with classical elements into my Improvisation
When I play jazz, I tend to stick to jazz elements, especially when I play the free improvisation as an introduction of my original song or as a song. It made me feel bored when I played or listened to myself. I wanted to combine jazz with other genres.
This research has helped me realize the improvisation method I already knew and how to develop it further. There were numerous techniques for playing classical music that Keith Jarrett employed during his Köln concert.
this research has deepened my understanding of improvisation techniques, particularly those demonstrated in Keith Jarrett's Köln concert, and has guided me in refining my own approach to performance.
