Isao Tomita

Isao Tomita (1932 April 22 - 2016 May 5) is a musician. He is a pioneer in electronic music and the arrangments of classical music for electronic synthesizers.

I did not know about Tomita until his death in 2016. I looked up his music when I heard the news. As a result, I found not only his great synthesizers arrangements, but also Debussy’s music, which is already full of imagery on piano.

If you’ve heard about Wendy Carlos who’ve done Bach’s works on synthesizers, then you might like Tomita.
