NYC Meet Nia, the Sassy, Smart & Savvy Heroine of the Award-Winning YA Book, NIA & THE NUMBERS GAME

NEW YORK – Oct. 30, 2019 – PRLog — Nia & The Numbers Game: A Teenager’s Guide to Education, Relationships & Sex is a young adult part-novel, part-self-help book. Defying the traditional publisher’s aversion to books that straddle both fiction and non-fiction, the self-released Nia & The Numbers Game is hitting a chord for both teenage girls and parents. Nia’s life, including friends, family, school, and dating, with her fictional experiences juxtaposed with Dr. Kela Henry’s real-life expertise, is intriguing young readers. The narrative is balanced by the author’s “Let’s Talk” section at the end of chapters, which explains and enhances the “what if” scenario without talking down to teens. read full release

VIRTUOSO PIANIST SHIZ’KA STEPS ONTO THE RECORDING STAGE WITH HER DEBUT ALBUM, SCARLATTI SONATAS

(Tuesday, February 26, 2019 – New York, New York) – Kéze Records announces the release of ShiZ’ka’s debut album SCARLATTI SONATAS featuring fourteen of the renowned composer Giuseppe Domenico Scarlatti’s sonatas. Playing classical piano since the age of four, ShiZ’ka is an acknowledged Scarlatti authority who has studied with renowned Japanese teachers Toshimi Sakou, Keita Kosaka, Makoto Yamahata, and Mako Okamoto. She has also studied at prominent music schools including Doshisha Women’s College of Liberal Arts and Berklee College of Music.

ShiZ’ka comes from a family of musicians. Her parents Nobue and Toshiyuki Saeki are both classical musicians (bassoonist and oboist respectively) and run a very successful music school, Poco A Poco, in Japan. Since ShiZ’ka was very young, she possessed a deep passion to perform. Much later, she was profoundly inspired by the nobility of Emil Gilels’ performances. read full release Musical America

International Piano Magazine recently stated in their review, “This is a refreshing brace of Scarlatti sonatas. The order of the Sonatas works beautifully; there is no doubting that ShiZ’ka has a resonance with Scarlatti’s style.”
