About this Website

This website is maintained by the family of the composer Maki Ishii. It is our intention to present here all available information, documents and other contents which depict the life and work of Maki Ishii and to make it accessible to a broad public.

The image on the top left side of each webpage is an illustration made by Hiroshi Tanabe and appeared initially in the "New Yorker" Magazine, in the February/March 1999 issue.
