Ryuichi Sakamoto

The innovative music of Ryuichi Sakamoto is a huge inspiration – particularly his many atmospheric collaborations with [German experimental artist] Alva Noto. We were fortunate enough to work with them on our production of A Doll’s House, just before Sakamoto passed away. The recent album Travesía, curated by the great film director Alejandro González Iñárritu, who collaborated with Sakamoto on The Revenant, offers a rich exploration of his solo work. But I would also recommend more of his haunting, intimate piano pieces, like the beautiful Aqua.
