In the history of music, Masaaki Suzuki is one of the names that keeps returning.
The record lists Masaaki Suzuki as Japanese music director, harpsichordist, organist.
Masaaki Suzuki was born at Kobe in 1954. His recorded nationality is Japan. He trained at Tokyo University of the Arts and Conservatorium van Amsterdam.
Amplification, television and the album as an art form defined this period, and the record industry reached its greatest scale.
He worked as conductor, choir director and composer.
The instruments recorded are harpsichord and organ.
His work is classed as classical music.
He performed with Bach Collegium Japan.
Performance is the most perishable art and recording the most durable; a career sits between the two.
Recognition followed: Cross of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany, Royal Academy of Music Bach Prize (2012), Bach Medal (2012) and Art Encouragement Prizes (2009).
That the work came out of Japan shaped it: musical traditions, training institutions and the reach of a recording industry all differ by country.
