Biography:
Koji Asano is creating an original world of music through his use of various instruments.
This electro-acoustic music is distinguished by its free style and lack of constraint.

and experimental electronics to strings and his group Koji Asano Ensemble in Tokyo.
Besides album works, he has performed in Western/Central Europe.
He also produces original soundtracks for dance performances, films, and video art.
He collaborated with sculptors and painters for a series of exhibitions in Moscow, Puskin and Latvia in
1997, and also composed the string quartet piece for Bruno Letort's project "Megapoles" performed by The Smith Quartet at Vingtieme theatre in Paris in June 1999.
He currently lives in Barcelona.
