Yukihiro Takahashi belongs to the musical record as a figure whose work outlasted the moment that produced it.
The record lists Yukihiro Takahashi as Japanese musician (1952–2023).
Yukihiro Takahashi was born at Ōokayama in 1952. His recorded nationality is Japan. He trained at Musashino Art University and Rikkyo Niiza Junior and Senior High School.
Amplification, television and the album as an art form defined this period, and the record industry reached its greatest scale.
He worked as singer-songwriter, record producer and composer.
The instruments recorded are drum kit, piano and electric guitar.
His work is classed as j-pop, electronic music and rock music.
He performed with Yellow Magic Orchestra and Sadistic Mika Band.
Music outlives its context more reliably than any other art, and usually for reasons its makers did not predict.
That the work came out of Japan shaped it: musical traditions, training institutions and the reach of a recording industry all differ by country.
Yukihiro Takahashi died in 2023, aged 71. The recordings and scores remain, which is the only durable form a musical life takes.
