posted on by Andrew Osmond
The Odeon cinema chain is screening the rock star YOSHIKI's directorial debut and feature film, YOSHIKI: Under The Sky, from Friday December 1.
There will also be a special screening on Tuesday December 5 at Covent Garden (at 7.45 p.m.) including an in-person Q&A with YOSHIKI himself.
YOSHIKI is the leader and co-founder of X Japan and The Last Rockstars. The film collects his recent musical collaborations with artists around the world, with the performer mainly at the seat of his piano on an open-air rooftop in tandem with the guest musicians often performing at other sites.
The artists in the film include Germany's The Scorpions, performing their peace anthem “Winds of Change”; China's Jane Zhang; Britain's Sarah Brightman; and American contributions from Lindsey Stirling, Nicole Scherzinger, St. Vincent, and The Chainsmokers. The SixTONES represented J-Pop, while HYDE and X Japan guitarist Sugizo came together with YOSHIKI for a new arrangement of “Red Swan,” the song featured in the third season of Attack on Titan.
