2022年12月11日，坂本龍一的鋼琴獨奏會將於全球直播。

恰巧在兩年前的差一天，也就是2020年12月12日時，世界正壟罩在新冠病毒疫情的陰影下，坂本選擇在東京的攝影棚舉行無觀眾鋼琴獨奏會。 然而，這場直播獨奏會並未留下任何影像紀錄。

今年12月11日的直播，對我們而言更是睽違2年得以見證「演奏中的坂本龍一」的時刻。

當天直播的影像將是事先錄製的影片。觀眾將會欣賞到各首用心演奏的曲目，以及事後花上大量心力編輯的成果。

坂本自述「已經沒有體力辦現場演奏會了，這可能是最後一次用這種形式演奏給各位觀眾看」。 以前能做到的事現在卻越來越難辦到……坂本接受了這項「現實」並消化後，決定轉移陣地到「新的現實」，嘗試激發本身新的主動性與積極性。

實際上，這次的「演奏會」便具備了將之化為可能的條件。

其中一個原因是，這次的演奏地點選在傳說中的NHK 509號攝影棚。 坂本毫不諱言地指出，東京澀谷NHK放送中心的509號攝影棚是全日本最優質的攝影棚，本次演奏會就在這座坂本認可的攝影棚中花上不少時間錄製。
另一個原因是，本次演奏會組成的電影製作團隊所有主要成員皆從紐約招募而來。這些人不單只是為了製作網路直播影片，同時也是為了製作另一部等待後製的「演奏會電影」，所以非常用心仔細地拍攝了演奏中的坂本龍一。
只要坂本還擁有「成功舉辦現場演奏會的體力」，這一切一定是不會發生的。

影片將從509攝影棚演奏會的60分鐘本篇開始播放。

On December 11, 2022, Ryuichi Sakamoto’s solo piano concert will be streamed to the world.

Two years ago, with a difference of one day—in other words, on December 12, 2020— Sakamoto played a solo piano concert when the world was in search of light within the dark tunnel of the coronavirus pandemic. He played from a studio in Tokyo with no audience present. The performance was live-streamed but was not archived for future release.

This means that on December 11, Sakamoto will be returning for the first time in two years to show us “Sakamoto in performance.”

What we will watch and listen to on this day is carefully recorded footage of Sakamoto performing a few pieces of music each day over the course of a week. It will be thoughtfully edited into a solo piano concert to be streamed on December 11.

Sakamoto says, “I don’t have the energy to do live concerts… This might be the last time that you will see me perform in this manner.” Perhaps he has accepted and sat with the reality that he is currently unable to do things that he once used to. Planting himself firmly on the ground of this new reality necessitated by his physical condition, Sakamoto seems to have found a new drive and positivity.

In fact, this concert will better showcase his new musical horizons than ever before for the following reasons:

Firstly, they used the legendary 509 Studio in NHK. Sakamoto does not hesitate in calling this studio located inside NHK Broadcasting Center in Shibuya, Tokyo, “The best in Japan.” Plenty of time was given to record his performance in this space.

Additionally, key crew members were brought in from New York on this occasion as part of the film production team. They filmed Sakamoto’s performance with the intention of not only streaming the footage but to put together a concert film to be released in theaters in the future.

Neither of these circumstances would have become a reality if Sakamoto happened to have the energy to do a live concert.

The streamed version will be about 60 minutes of his performance at the 509 Studio.
