Yoko Suzuki, “Inspirada por la naturaleza”, thrills audiences with her compositions and performances at MontPhoto FEST 2025

Renowned Japanese composer and pianist Yoko Suzuki captivated the audience during the awards ceremony for the MontPhoto international nature photography competition, held in Lloret de Mar.
Her performance transformed the visual essence of the award-winning works into music, offering an artistic experience filled with sensitivity and respect for nature.

With an intimate and delicate staging, Suzuki presented fragrant pieces of the original compositions created especially for the event, inspired by the emotions evoked by the award-winning photographs.
Her notes—full of nuances and expressive silences—created an atmosphere of profound connection between image and sound, reinforcing MontPhoto's message about the beauty and fragility of the natural world.

Her performance was one of the most applauded moments of the ceremony, notable for her ability to translate the photographers' vision into musical language. Attendees described it as a "poetic and moving" performance, which offered a new emotional interpretation of the award-winning images.

With this collaboration, MontPhoto consolidates its commitment to the fusion of visual and sound arts and reaffirms its role as a space of inspiration for creators like Yoko Suzuki, who seek to convey awareness and emotion through art.

INSPIRED BY NATURE, A MUST-HAVE CD

The excerpts and works performed at the Gala are included in a special album called "Inspired by Nature," which features 11 original tracks inspired by each of the 11 award-winning categories in the MontPhoto 2025 competition. This album offers a unique and moving musical performance that translates emotions into sound.

Each track on the CD is intricately linked to a specific competition category, reflecting the thematic diversity of the award-winning images, which range from wildlife and landscape scenes to ecological critiques. With this project, Suzuki delves deeper into the connection between visual and sound art, highlighting nature photography as a tool for awareness and conservation.

The CD not only accompanies the ceremony but also aims to reach a wider audience, expanding the reach and impact of the MontPhoto festival beyond images, through a multi-sensory artistic experience that moves and inspires awareness of the importance of protecting the environment.

This initiative consolidates the collaboration between MontPhoto and Yoko Suzuki, which has already become an essential part of the annual event, offering added value that transforms the public's perception of nature and the award-winning photography.
