2004年6月、大阪アーツアポリア・赤レンガ倉庫で開催された「作曲のための展覧会」で公開滞在制作された作品がCDとして発売されます。
Koji Asanoの通算36枚目となり、スペインから日本へ移住後初の　CDアルバムとなる今作は、約１週間、蒸し暑い夏の空っぽの倉庫にカンヅメになり、 グランドピアノと音響装置を設置しゼロから作り上げた50分55秒の大作。
倉庫独特の音響特性を生かし、遠く響いていくピアノ音を採集・加工、さらにいくつものスピーカーで増幅、加工、再生しマイク収録を繰り返していく手法で、単なるピアノ音、あるいはコンピューターデジタル音という区別のつかない奥行きのある音風景に仕上がっています。
毎日４時間、全神経を集中して作り上げる様を来場者に公開し、湿気と海風のインスピレーションを受け、大阪築港に大音量で響かせながら完成したグランドピアノとコンピューターサウンドの大融合作品です。

Your Message to Koji

A delightful and intoxicating experience. Koji Asano composed "Sanctuary on Reclaimed Land" during the Open-Studio Exhibiton series which took place in Osaka Arts-Aporia, on June 2004. In a huge warehouse located in the harbor area of Osaka city, Asano counts on seven days of an artist-in-residence program and the endless humidity of the maritime environment, to carry out one of the most amazing works of his abundant production. After an initial
part of the recording which the composer use to clearly introduce the protagonists of this sound adventure; that is to say, a piano, the acoustic characteristics of the performance space and the technological resource as a sound transforming tool, Asano submerges us in an immeasurable ocean of deafening confusion and singular beauty. As it happened previously ("Preparing for April" -solstice 013-, "The End of August" -solstice 022- or "January Rainbow" -solstice 027-), the piano becomes again the only instrumental alibi to produce an electroacoustic composition in which prevails an acoustic exploration of that venue by means of the continuous generation of vibrating piles. That is so, throughout the long fifty minutes, we attend to a murmuring challenge of meandering development and its main virtue resides in an effective distribution of the range of resonances obtained by the collection and transformation of the sound material. "Sanctuary on Reclaimed Land" is the most recent creation by the Japanese composer and artist, and his thirty six release on the Solstice label. - Ferran Cuadras, Arsonal
