Hiromi joins stellar cast at Night of the Proms with Yamaha

Yamaha artist Hiromi is one of the world's most explosive and creative pianists and composers. She is renowned for her virtuosic technique, which seemlesly blends her musical influences and styles, spanning rock, classical, progressive, fusion and jazz.

Coincidentally hailing from Hamamatsu in Japan – the home of Yamaha pianos – Hiromi has enjoyed a long-standing and fruitful relationship with the company and it's staff. She recently returned to Europe for a 31-dates tour taking in Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany as a part of the hugely popular Night of the Proms series. For the concerts Hiromi used a Yamaha CF6 piano on all dates.

The Night of the Proms series was developed in 1984 and has continued to grow in popularity year-on-year. Since their inception the spectacular Proms concerts have attracted over 7 million music fans and starred some of the most influential musicians of a generation, including Joe Cocker, Simple Minds, James Brown, Art Garfunkel, Sting and Al Jarreau, to name just a few.

Yamaha were delighted to once again provide assistance and technical support to Hiromi. You can enjoy her talking about her career, influences and her transition from classical student to jazz star here.
