“I hope that my music doesn’t separate from your lives. Instead, I want it to be with you always, as if it’s the background music to your lives.” Yiruma

River Flows In You and Kiss In The Rain

South Korean pianist and composer Yiruma is celebrating 23 years since his debut album with a new recording, The Rewritten Memories. It features brand-new orchestral arrangements of some of his best-loved works from the past two decades, including the globally popular “River Flows In You” – dubbed “the ‘Clair de lune’ of the 21st century” (Classic FM) – and “Kiss The Rain”, which is out now as a single. After 5 years of waiting, Yiruma is coming back with the best of his collection and cannot wait to share his best selling neo-classical music with his fans in Australia and New Zealand.

Presented by Harmonie International
