Nobuyuki Mizuoka

Life: Heading into a New World!

Here is a breathtaking original Nobuyuki Mizuoka composition that is the seventh track on his 2009 album “Life.” Mizuoka-san has a bottomless creative capability that may very well catapult him to great heights as an international-caliber composer-arranger.

花は咲く Flowers Will Bloom

This song had been created as a part of the international humanitarian response to the 8.8 magnitude earthquake and accompanying tsunami that devastated Japan’s northeastern (Tōhoku) region on March 11, 2011.

Imagine

A unique and varied arrangement of “Imagine” performed by Nobuyuki Mizuoka at Minatomirai Cross Patio in Yokohama, Japan, on 7 January 2014.

Originals Trifecta

Cross-border sampler of three original melodies written and performed by Composer-Pianist Nobuyuki Mizuoka.

Stardust

The jazz standard “Stardust” performed live by Shinji Ishihara on tenor sax, Nobuyuki Mizuoka on piano, and Shigenobu Kikuta on wood bass.

Cherryblossoms of Dreams

This melody “Yumezakura” was written and performed by Pianist-Composer Nobuyuki Mizuoka and released on his 2009 album “旅人星 (Tabibitoboshi ー Wanderer’s Star).” To illustrate the live performance in parts of this video, I used a number of my photographs of scenes taken during the height of the cherryblossom season in Hibiya Park, Tokyo.🌸

On a Streetcorner in Paris

I’m very sure that you will begin to reminisce about how lovely Paris used to be as you enjoy this pleasant song. The original melody「パリの街角で」— “Pari no machikado de” in Japanese — was composed and performed by Pianist Nobuyuki Mizuoka and is the fourth track of his 2005 solo album “Home-bound.”
