    Founder and President, All Japan Rakuraku Piano ®︎ Association

    Founder and Representative of TAPNESS®︎ Healthcare Music Association

    Hiromi Mitsuhata, President, PREMUSE Inc.

    The founding of the organization (2006) began when he devised an easy-to-understand sheet music for his mother, who was retiring, and asked her to take up piano as a new hobby. The following year, she presented her work at the main arena of the National Lifelong Learning Festival sponsored by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT), which became a hot topic on NHK news and in newspapers, and the sheet music was published, making the "Rakuraku Piano" organization a nationwide phenomenon. Since adult piano teaching methods are said to be an unexplored field in the industry, he wrote about his field experience and teaching methods in the piano music magazine "Chopin Monthly". Rakuraku Piano" was registered as a utility model and trademark by the Japan Patent Office, and won the Excellence Award at the Knowledge Innovation Award 3rd. She was a finalist in "LED Kansai," a project sponsored by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry's Kinki Bureau of Economy, Trade and Industry to support female entrepreneurs, and established PREMUSE, Inc. in 2016. Since piano playing is effective in preventing dementia, she developed the world's first hand pedometer "TAPNESS®︎" application, and with the support of Faith Inc. and Nippon Columbia Inc. produced teaching materials that include orchestral performances, choral music, etc. The "Rakuraku Piano" textbook was consecutively ranked No. 1 in new releases on Amazon, Rakuten, etc. He also produced "Super Sheet Music," which allows users to enjoy video performances with Mansuiso, a nationally designated important cultural property, and Matterport (a VR space with 3D shapes). Later, with the Corona disaster, there was a sudden demand for spiritual enrichment, and he simultaneously developed online learning, video grade certification, online teacher training, a sheet music download site, and home-delivery video materials "live sheet music."
