(2) Born on February 15, 1978 in Seoul, South Korea, pianist Yiruma (real name: I Ru-ma) has released a string of successful albums in the 2000s and managed to land a number one hit with his composition "River Flows in You." Additionally, he was the first Korean artist to be invited to perform at the 2002 MIDEM in Cannes, France. Yiruma began playing the piano at the age of five and then moved to London in 1988 to study at the Purcell School of Music, where he graduated in July 1997. In June 2000, he completed a composition major at King's College London, and from 2001 onward he released a number of albums that can be categorized somewhere between the "contemporary classical" and "new age" genres. His 2001 album First Love contained the composition "River Flows in You," which subsequently became a number one hit in several countries, especially when it was briefly considered to be included on the soundtrack of the movie Twilight. Even though the producers ultimately did not use the piece, a series of YouTube videos appeared online where Yiruma's cut was put into the corresponding scene, boosting the track's popularity and resulting in it being remixed by German DJ Alex Christensen in 2010. Yiruma also composed the scores for the movie Oasis (directed by Lee Chang-dong) and the stop-motion animated film Doggy Poo (directed by Kwon Oh-sung). ~ Christian Genzel, Rovi

私は、2023年から2024年に、Yirumaの曲の数々を不意な事からYouTubeで知りました!!
Yirmaの公式チャンネルを一時期、登録しほとんど全てのピアノの曲を聞きました!!
あぁ、どのピアノの曲も素晴らしく、聞くのが追いつかなか、リピートしています💫😊 特にこの曲やDo you? love me 、 他も沢山あります! ピアノはこんなにも素晴らしく美しいのだと、もしかしたら私は、あなたの美しく、どこか切なく、悲しく、でも純粋な音楽を知らずに一生、生きていたらピアノの曲に対してそう思えなかったかもしれません!!(英語ができなくて、すみません🙏💦😥特に書くのは最も難しいです) でも、音や、音楽にも国は関係ないと私は確信しました。あなたの曲は、切なく、繊細で、美しいです。知れて本当に良かったです!!✨💫素晴らしい音楽を本当にありがとうございます!!（英語で書くのは翻訳機能を使ったり、時間か必要なので日本語でごめんなさい🙏😥💦) 私は、スマホですが、コメントは、あらゆる国の言語が、自動の翻訳機能で読めます! 簡単な英語位、調べて、覚えて書きなさいよと思う人々もいるかもしれませんが、昔や日常でかなり学び、日常で使わないと、どの言語もとても難しいと思います。本当に曲が素晴らしいです💫ありがとうございます!!😊
その後、久々に聞きたくなり、Yirmaの公式チャンネルのこの曲を聞いて驚きました!!😮テンポは若干ゆっくりなのですが、これより時間も2分位長く、全く曲の印象が違いました!😮😊とても良かったです!!
私は、公式の時間が長いこの曲の方が、こちらのバージョンよりもとても好きです😊💫🫶
自分が興味をもったり、好きな曲や音楽問わず物事は、ちゃんとご本人の公式チャンネルを登録してみなければ分からならない事も沢山あると改めて感じました!!
大変、長文失礼しました🙏
素晴らしいピアノの曲の数々を知れてたことに感謝しています😊どうもありがとうございます!!
