Her repertoire ranges from Japanese traditional, folk songs, evergreens, pops which includes compositions of Tom Waits, Roberta Flack to jazz standards, to name a few. She has been performing and touring regularly across Japan, but in recent years she has expanded her activities to internationally in Vietnam, Italy, and Singapore. She has been the featured vocalist for celebrity hairstylist Shunji Matsuo's project Makeover Magic, which celebrates beauty of aging women. https://ginevi.com/2016/12/01/shunji-matsuos-makeover-magic-2016/LegacySakai started her career as singer at legendary Jazz Club 'Misty' in Roppongi, Tokyo in the 70’s. After a sudden move to New York City, followed by an 8 years of extended hiatus raising her son, she made a return to the music scene of Japan. Her signature song 'Mangetu No Yuube (Evening of the Full Moon)’ (1998 BMG Fan House), originally written by Kei Nakagawa (Soul Flower Union) for over six thousand lives lost in Great Hanshin Earthquake of 1995, has won her “The Best Project Award” at 45th Japan Composer's Award. This opportunity has provided her an even wider exposure of her talents such as the national TV programs and movies, but yet her interests and style left convention behind and moved to a more tribal, improvised sound that could not be defined in a single category. During this exploration, Shun released an experimental album Night at the Circus Vol.1. This was followed by the release in 2010 of two more albums, Plays Standard Vol.1 and A Few Little Things, both of which were marked departures from her earlier recordings. Sakai’s latest album Daily life of Spiral Staircase with Japan’s leading figure in jazz, alto saxophonist Eiichi Hayashi and pianist Nobumasa Tanaka was released in 2012, and has become an important contribution to the catalogue of this prolific and ever evolving artist.Sakai continues to be adventurous; experimenting with her own voice and instrumentations that at times can be obscure. Through her unstoppable artistry, she moves all ages, genders and nationalities with her sublime gift of singing.www.shunsakai.net --------------------------------------------------------------------About the facilitator: AYA SEKINEAya Sekine is a Japanese Jazz pianist based in Singapore who has been actively performing worldwide over the past 2 decades.
