“Although pianist and composer Tomoko Ozawa isn’t the first musician to find inspiration in Emily Dickinson—Aaron Copland wrote a 12-song cycle around her poems—Ozawa seems to best capture the poet’s mystery and distinctive, unconventional rhythms. Gentian, Ozawa’s ten-track 2015 album, features recitations of Dickinson’s poems over unusual, meditative compositions that beautifully convey the poet’s voice.”
