Work introduction
Composed in the winter of 2021/2022. Inspired by Hokusai's paintings, Hikaru Suzuki simultaneously imagined that the two befriended musicians Alexander Zimoglyadov and Sandra Carina Meier would play it. That is how this sonata was created. Hokusai's paintings are not only beautiful, they also have something eerie about them.
