Beyond Category: Keiko Matsui

Keiko Matsui’s music has been labelled many things - Jazz, Smooth Jazz, New Age, World Music. But whatever the label, the pianist-composer’s sound is always her own. Keiko Matsui takes the VOA Stage to perform some of her best-loved songs, and to talk with Beyond Category host Eric Felten about her life in music.

Most old men like me spend their afternoon's watching TV or napping. Not me! I watch RUclips videos of Keiko Matsui. Been a fan of Keiko since ~ 99 when "Safari" was a popular song played on WRTI radio in Philly. I became Hooked on her fantastic music instantly. Since then,whenever she tours near me I come see here play live music. I have seen and heard a lot in my years.Only some compares slightly to her amazing talent and writing and comps. Some songs even make me cry! The cry of joy.

Im just listening to her music.she mix many genres with her inner beauty and make her music so classy pop(if we called so).here we are not totally hear jazz fusion,nor david Foster style,nor kitaro,new age etc.Keiko music lead us to many beautiful scenery and styles.IMO if we compare with mike oldfield,mike music more involve in experiment,odd meter,synthesizer,But keiko lighter not involves with these hard things,but I feel they have the same thing,mixture styles that become their original works.thanks
