Description
Experience the profound artistry of Ryuichi Sakamoto with Opus, a definitive vinyl collection curated by the composer himself. Spanning decades of groundbreaking work, this 4-LP set brings together iconic film scores, Yellow Magic Orchestra classics, and deeply personal compositions that reflect Sakamoto’s singular musical voice. Highlights include Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence, Andata, and Aqua, alongside never-before-recorded pieces such as for Jóhann (a tribute to Jóhann Jóhannsson), BB (dedicated to Bernardo Bertolucci), and 20180219 (featuring prepared piano).
Pressed at 45RPM across four heavyweight LPs for exceptional audio fidelity, each disc is housed in its own jacket with matching black paper dust sleeves. The set is encased in a hand-crafted textured slipcase with elegant black foil detailing and includes a collector’s booklet with composition notes and credits. Opus is more than a retrospective; it’s a final statement from one of the most influential composers of our time.
