First album "Enigma" (2022) Reviews:
"Here is a pianist who uses a superlative techniqu to project performances that glow with an inner light of understanding. Negishi's performance is mesmeric. Here, as everywhere, her innate musicality allow the music to shine."
-Colin Clarke, International Piano Magazine, Sept 2022
"Negishi's playing is very powerful, and gives a brilliant performance full of dynamism. The jazzy swing of the Scherzo and final movements (Kapustin) are particularly wonderful.....Overall, the album is very impressive and highly recommended..."
-Tsutomu Nasuda, Record Geijutsu, August 2022
"Is there a more audacious way to commence your solo debut recording than by diving into Nikolai Kapustin's wildly rhapsodic First Piano Sonata? Especially if you've got Yuki Negishi's fast, well-oiled and supremely confident fingers."
-Jed Distler, Gramophone, July 2022
The rare poetry and passion of the playing of Yuki Negishi captivates audiences around the world.
From Europe to concerts and recitals in Japan, China, Bangladesh and the USA, and over 800 performances in the UK, Yuki’s virtuosity illuminates the traditional classical repertoire and introduces listeners to the delights of little-known composers and contemporary compositions.
Equally at ease on radio and TV as well as the concert platform, Yuki has been broadcast on BBC Radio 3, Scala Radio, Channel 4 and ITV and channels in Holland, France, Poland and Romania. Her recent online series of performances entitled “Piano Music by Women” was singled-out by Pianist magazine as exceptional and she has maintained an energetic virtual and live schedule, including appearances in the Concertgebouw Amsterdam, Zurich Tonhalle, Absolute Classics, Blanc European Festival, Toppan Hall Tokyo, Southbank Centre and more.
Listen to some of Yuki's performances on Spotify and on YouTube.
"Enigma" and "Preludes" are available on all major streaming platforms.
