Hiromi Iwasaki

Hiromi Iwasaki, born 岩崎 宏美 on November 12, 1958, in Kōtō, Tokyo, Japan, is a Japanese singer known for her contributions to Kayōkyoku, and pop music genres. She began taking singing lessons at an early age and participated in the "Star Tanjou!" contest in 1974, winning with her performance of "Anata" composed by Kosaka Akiko. This victory secured her a contract with Victor Records, leading to her debut single "Duo" in 1975. Her breakthrough came with her second single, "Romance", which sold over 900,000 copies and earned her a spot at the Kouhaku Utagassen. Throughout the late 1970s and early 1980s, Iwasaki released numerous albums and singles, including hits like "Shishuuki" and "Madonna-tachi no Lullaby" - the former earning her the 19th Japan Record Awards Singing Award. She also ventured into acting, starring in musical adaptations of Hamlet and Les Misérables. In 1986, Iwasaki performed at the Pyramids in Egypt. Her career includes collaborations with various artists and orchestras, including the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra for her album PRAHA (Prague) in 2007. She has released over sixty singles, thirty original albums, and numerous compilations, including Fantasy (1976), WISH (1980) and Love Letter (1982). She transitioned from Victor Entertainment to Imperial Records in 2000 and continued recording popular works such as: Happiness (2004), Natural (2006) and Thanks (2009), returning in 2022 with Eternal Voices.
