Vicky Chow Explores the Musical World of Ryuichi Sakamoto
A Month of Tuesdays brings world-renowned Vancouver pianist Vicky Chow to the Fox Cabaret this spring for an intimate performance of music by Ryuichi Sakamoto. A longtime collaborator with Music on Main, Chow previously sold out Christ Church Cathedral for two consecutive years with her performances of Philip Glass’s Piano Etudes. This time, she turns to the music of another visionary composer whose work bridges musical worlds.
Ryuichi Sakamoto (1952–2023) was a Japanese composer and artist whose work spanned a wide range of musical styles. From helping shape the foundations of synth-pop, electro, and techno in the 1970s and ’80s to exploring classical composition, electronic music, and recordings of sounds from around the world, Sakamoto continually reimagined the possibilities of music.
Described by Pitchfork as “one of our era’s most brilliant pianists,” Vicky Chow is one of the most sought-after pianists of her generation. In this intimate setting, you will get a fresh perspective on the evocative music of Ryuichi Sakamoto.
