Moon LLC has signed a management contract with the piano duo "Anikizu."

Junichiro and Soichiro Yamashita are second-year high school students at an all-boys school, with two younger siblings, ages 8 and 3.

They received perfect pitch training at age 2 and began studying classical piano seriously at age 4. They have won the duet category at the Osaka International Music Competition and competed in the national finals of 10 categories at the PTNA Piano Competition, winning the Best, Bronze, and Silver Awards. They were also finalists in the Asian competition at the Chopin Competition in Asia and were selected for the Tokyo competition in the junior high school piano category at the National Student Music Competition. They were invited to perform in Germany in 2023.

The first time I met them and their family in person,
I was amazed to see such a united family!

As we talked, the reason became clear.
Their 8-year-old brother is disabled and bedridden due to a rare illness that affects 1 in 1 million people.
He lives with a ventilator.

The whole family has overcome many challenges.

Having accompanied their younger brother to the hospital since childhood, the couple says that doctors are their heroes.

Their dream is to become doctors.

And to inspire people as pianists.

The hardships and joys they have faced.

The dignified strength of this family that has overcome so many challenges.

I believe this strength is needed in today's world, and I believe it will inspire courage and hope for those struggling in the same way.

We will do our utmost to support them so that the world will know about the beauty of the music and piano that only they can create.
