The eagerly anticipated second album by celebrated Japanese pianist and composer Hayato Sumino (aka 'Cateen'). Following the success of his acclaimed Sony debut 'Human Universe', Hayato Sumino - known globally as 'Cateen' - returns with 'Chopin Orbit', a conceptually rich and emotionally resonant album that places the music of Frédéric Chopin at its centre. Chopin, Sumino's favorite composer, has long been a gravitational force in his artistic life. That connection was first spotlighted during his standout performances at the 2021 International Chopin Competition, and now takes full flight in 'Chopin Orbit'. This unique collection features Sumino's original compositions inspired by Chopin's masterpieces, not as imitations but as creative echoes-melodies and motifs reimagined through the lens of a 21st
century classical artist. Included are pieces such as Chopin's 'Polonaise-Fantasie op. 61', 'Nocturne in C-sharp minor', 'Berceuse', and 'Raindrop Prelude', alongside Hayato's original works 'White Keys' and 'Post Rain'. Also featured are works by Thomas Adès, Leopold Godowsky, and Leos Janácek - highlighting Chopin's influence across generations.
