For Sara(.es), who has resonated with numerous musicians, this is a special solo live recording, her first in about a year. Weaving together the sounds of bells, water-emitting instruments, harmonica, crystal bowls, triangle, and more, an energy-filled piano solo unfolds. From 1 May to 14 June 2025, the solo exhibition ‘Prayer’ by artist Keiichi Ikegami was held at Gallery Nomaru, the home of .es (dot es) and the base for Utsunomiya MIX. Following the sudden passing of Satoshi Hayashi, former director of Nomar and producer of .es, in November 2024, sara(.es) – who had deepened ties with Ikegami alongside Hayashi – conceived of releasing sound like a prayer resonating with the source of the universe within a space surrounded by Ikegami's artworks. Amidst a packed audience, the climax was a legendary solo live performance, described unanimously as ‘feeling a pillar of light’.
