Biography

Sawano was born in Tokyo, Japan. He began playing piano in elementary school. From the age of 17 he studied composition, arrangement, orchestration, and piano under Nobuchika Tsuboi.[3] He has been active as a composer since 2004.[1][4]

In 2014, he launched a new vocal song project under the name "SawanoHiroyuki[nZk]", producing the first album UnChild with Aimer as the vocalist under the name SawanoHiroyuki[nZk]:Aimer.[5][6] Since then his songs under this vocal song project have also been used as the opening and ending themes for various anime, including Aldnoah.Zero, Seraph of the End, Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn RE:0096, The Legend of the Galactic Heroes: Die Neue These Kaikō, and Re:Creators. Sawano's vocal song project was moved to the Sacra Music record label under Sony Music Entertainment Japan in April 2017.[7]

On July 2, 2017, Sawano's contract with Legendoor was terminated after approximately 12 years.[8] He is now represented by VV-ALKLINE.[9]
