Danse de l’âme
Thirteen works, one continuous inner landscape. Bach, Ravel, Bartók, Piazzolla and more — shaped through colour, breath and movement.

Where sound
becomes presence.
From the architecture of Bach to the freedom of improvisation, Saya Hashino / ILUMA creates musical experiences that transform silence, space and the listener.
01 — The artist
A singular voice
across many worlds.
Saya Hashino is a Geneva-based pianist, organist, harpsichordist, composer and sound artist whose work moves between the concert stage, the cinema and immersive sonic creation.
Her musical language brings precision and instinct into the same space: repertoire is not a museum object, and improvisation is not an escape. Each is a way of listening more deeply.

One artist.
Three currents.
Not separate identities, but different entrances into one musical world: the written score, the living present and the invisible.
Classical performance
Piano · Organ · Harpsichord
Solo recitals, orchestral projects and chamber music shaped by clarity, colour and a deep relationship with the score.
Contemporary & cinema
New music · Orchestra · Film
Complex scores, premieres and live cinema: music at the meeting point of precision, image and dramatic instinct.
ILUMA — sonic creation
Improvisation · Voice · Bowls · Synthesizer
Original, site-sensitive experiences in which vibration becomes composition and listening becomes a shared ritual.
ILUMA — Immersive sound
Listening with
the whole body.
Through improvisation, intuitive voice, singing bowls and synthesizers, ILUMA creates immersive experiences in which sound is felt as much as it is heard.
Each work is an invitation to slow down, enter the resonance and discover what becomes audible beneath the surface.
Inside the creative process · 21 Days
Creation before it becomes a work.
A real studio fragment: testing how musical material created during the 21 Days project could open into live piano improvisation.
Not a finished performance, but the moment the music begins to change shape.
Selected appearances
A career built
without a single box.
From the Royal Albert Hall to the Tonhalle Zürich, from canonical repertoire to the most demanding music of today, Saya’s path is defined by range without dilution.
