A brilliant talent. Wasn't much interested in jazz before but now that I am, I found Keiko Matsui's music. I like all musical genres but she really stands out for technique and originality. Some of her pieces are simply beautiful.
So beautiful! We saw you tonight in Virginia Beach, thank you for playing for us! All of you were phenomental and so incredibly talented. Please have a safe trip and know you made a beautiful night of memories and music in our lives!
I love all her music! NEVER get tired of listening to it. Keiko is so gifted as a musician and composer. I'm ready for her next cd.I have ALL of her cd. Love them all, especially when you need quiet time....THANK YOU KEIKO!!!!!!!!
Saw her in concert in 1992, in a small Community Center in Orange County, Ca. Her first US appearance, was FANTASTIC. I still have the autographed Ticket stubs.
she is my favorite performer now, so sweet, beautiful talented and such a warm positive spirit on earth.. Just saw her at Yoshi's Oakland last month.. she rocked the house...I love her facebook postings and pictures.. so real!
Will never forget the first time I heard Keiko. A co-worker was playing her "Dreamwalk" CD and I was transfixed from the beginning. Went out and bought the CD; now have 12 of her albums and have seen her at least six times in various venues in the DC area. She has reams of talent.
Keiko Matsui is magnificently talented as a composer & performer. She's so very pretty as well, absolutely beautiful. I've loved her music for many years. She takes us to so many good and wonderful places via her perfect artistry. Keiko Matsui, we love you. - Michael R. McGarrett Port Tobacco, Maryland
I visited with joy and pleasure Keiko Matsui's concert in Sochi this spring. It was really amaizing and wonderful! I thought she was very cute and undoubtedly talented.
I remember hearing her at a concert many years ago in Herndon, Va. and wondered who was that. I was so overwhelmed by her music, at that time I went out and bought 3 of her cds. I love her music.
Years ago, after buying my first cd player, I was not sure what cd's to get. I was struck by this beautiful face, and took a chance. I think the title was Under Northern Lights. It was brilliant. Keiko weaves notes, like an artist paints, filling the tapestry with a whirlwind of colors and imagination. She takes you places that are like in a dream. Very few artists in my mind deserve the title genius. She wears the title like a crown. Thank you Keiko.
beautiful! i always listen to her piano when stressed out. Many die before getting a chance to listen to your music, I'm great full to be alive. Thank you Keiko Matsui.
I have seen her twice this year at jazz alley. As wonderful as her recorded music is, she comes across even better live. I will see her live every chance I get.
I had the privilege of hearing Keiko live at the King Kat Theatre in Seattle a while back. This song was inspired by her daughter, Mako who was only 3 at the time, saying "Mom, I love you forever, forever". Beautiful song, beautiful music, beautiful composer, beautiful lady, beautiful human being! Keiko, we love you! Keep doing what you do!
I heard this @ Fashion Island in California and the memory of that day is burned in my mind. I was with my two best friends that day, it was 80 degrees, I was younger/care free and LOVED how the song filled a perfect background!
Words make a feeble attempt to describe the beauty this person extracts from you. It is indescribable at the very least, the emotional gambit her musci takes you through. I was blessed to see her 15 years ago at a small outdoor venue at North Star Lake Tahoe,Ca. On a beautiful sunny afternoon in the Sierra Nevada's amongst the pine trees her music carried you away wrapped in joy and serenity that is as vivid in my memory now as it was then. I will never forget that feeling. Magic
Keiko related in an interview with BET, The Jazz Channel, that her daughter said one day: "I love you Mom -- forever forever". And so Keiko composed this tune "Forever Forever" to capture and remember that moment in time. It has almost certainly become Keiko's best known composition.
I heard this song playing @ Fashion Island Mall in Newport Beach CA back in '99. I frantically tried to find out what the song was called and who played it! Luckily, a jazz fan was close by and told me. I bought the CD shortly after. Bridge Over The Stars is also fantastic! She must be incredible performing live.
She's speaking through the keys. Watch her expressions as she plays. It's almost as though she is speaking...but the words (music) comes through the piano. This is true genius at work. Not only beautiful music, but intense and gentle at the same time. My heart always sings when I hear her play and more so when I see her perform. She gives me the reason to want to play well on the keyboard. Not for fame but because it feels so good to the soul.
Wow! I have several of Keiko's CDs and this tune is by far my favorite. I have listened to her for years, but had never heard (nor seen) any live versions. This cut is so much more elegant without the background music from a studio recording. And the way she blends with the piano, it is though they are one; I’m awestruck.
I met her today after her performance in Richmond, Va. It rained while she was playing and now I understand better the meaning of the phrase "the heaven's opened".
This one is amazing. So.. touching. ^^ I love Keiko's piano solos. This is just great. I got really fund of Forever Forever a few weeks ago, so it's nice to find it in RUclips.
I love this too, it is extreme comfort. I know your feeling of it helping you along, Nakajima Miyuki san's music does that for me constantly...pure and totally emotion charged...have a great day!
She's got the cred too! Classically trained, prefers smooth jazz (obviously) & composes her own music (some in conjunction w/ her husband Kazu, who performs with her & does sound for Hollywood movies). She's one of the sweetest, most talented ladies I've ever met. Don't have a single one of her CDs that she did not inscribe (after concert) to me, and even signed another set for my disabled mom. Her heart is as sweet as she is talented!
Sorry for the tears... THIS IS the kind of work that should be supported in all this world so confused, sad and, lost... But, unfortunately there are a lot of "noises" else out there, that pretend to be called MUSIC. NO!!! No fuckin' reggaeton, no vallenato, no fuckin' "despecho", no "rancheras"!!!!!!!!! Thanks, Keiko...
Oh, I forgot to mention that this video is almost 20 years ago when she used to be one of the keyboard players for the all-female keyboard trio band called "COSMOS". This piece was also composed by then Keiko Doi which is her maiden name. Very rare and precious recording!!
Awesome pianist. I’ve listened to her for over 20 years. I put her up there with George Winston. So soothing for my soul.
A brilliant talent. Wasn't much interested in jazz before but now that I am, I found Keiko Matsui's music. I like all musical genres but she really stands out for technique and originality. Some of her pieces are simply beautiful.
I love her sound as well, I have for years
Just call us from one music and when we discover the style we stay forever. She's unique
One of my favourite piano songs of all time hands down
So beautiful! We saw you tonight in Virginia Beach, thank you for playing for us! All of you were phenomental and so incredibly talented. Please have a safe trip and know you made a beautiful night of memories and music in our lives!
One of the most gifted piano artists to have ever graced the stage anywhere.
Это Бах нашего времени. Она заслуживает огромного успеха. Это просто наслаждение, а не музыка. Я в большом восторге!!!!
Ну про Баха вы конечно подзагнули, но то, что она талантлива это бесспорно!)

She plays from her soul..you can hear it in her music.
Exactly! She makes the piano talk. 😊
Since I have discovered keiko...I don't haven't listened to any other pianist. I truly truly love this ladies gift! I never tire of her
Нічого прекраснішого за цю мелодію не чув. Дякую!

She undoubtedly has the strongest female hand in the business. Wunderbar!!!! 👍👍👍

Только что вернулся с её концерта в Воронеже! Несмотря на то, что концерта длился чуть более часа, всё было супер!
Simply beautiful!!!
The peace found in the sanzen in temple near Kyoto is so matched to that found in this beautiful rendering by Matsui san...
She's got the cred too!

Sorry for the tears...
THIS IS the kind of work that should be supported in all this world so confused, sad and, lost...
But, unfortunately there are a lot of "noises" else out there, that pretend to be called MUSIC.
NO!!! No fuckin' reggaeton, no vallenato, no fuckin' "despecho", no "rancheras"!!!!!!!!!
Thanks, Keiko...
