Biography
Mutsuhito Ogino studied composition with Sven-David Sandström and pipe organ performance with Larry Smith at Indiana University, Bloomington. Upon graduation, he fulfilled his desire to establish himself simply as “just one musician” in his hometown of Osaka, Japan. Free of the limitations of artistic labels, he explored diverse musical projects. He created the score for a documentary drama, “Moonrise Over Manzanar”(2009). In central Osaka, he volunteers playing violin in a rose garden. He returned to the reed organ for a series of performance called SOUND GATE, held in a 100-year-old traditional Japanese building. The audiences for these events range from infants to seniors, and they create a space where they can practice meditation and needlepoint. Among his recent compositions is "Soundtraveler” for Wind Ensemble.
