Midori Hirano is a Japanese musician, composer, sound artist and producer, born in Kyoto and now based in Berlin. Her productions are based around the use of traditional instrumentation such as the piano or strings, but yet her works are so diverse and eclectic mixture of modern digital sounds with subtle electronic processing or field recordings. Now she is working on the music for a contemporary dance piece in which she is going to focus on the production during her residency at the EMS studio.
