Some of Nobu's CDs are available through U.S. Amazon , but I order mine from Amazon Japan, which ships to U.S. and does provide some English translations on their pages.

They accept American credit cards.

♪ Jan 21 2020 Nobu CDs playlists now available on YouTube

Nobu's CDs by Avex Classics, beautifully packaged and expertly produced, are sold in Japan only.

Whenever I attend his concerts in Europe and U.S., such as his Jan 14 Paris recital at the Theatre de Champs Elysee, it pains me to see albums of other artists being sold in the lobby, and only a couple of very old and modestly packaged Nobu albums previously licensed to be distributed by a Dutch label.

It seems that distribution of the Avex-CDs outside Japan is infeasible because of the price differences.

But it has just come to my attention that Avex has made the sound tracks of many Nobuyuki Tsujii CDs (sold from Japan only) available for listening as playlists on YouTube, FREE.

Check it out by clicking on "Listen Now You Tube" on the English side of the Nobuyuki Tsujii official web site -> https://avex.jp/tsujii/tsujii-en/

Alternatively, the YouTube channel, "Nobuyuki Tsujii Topic", is directly accessible at this link.

The tracks are also available digitally on streaming portals such as apple and spotify

辻井伸行のベルリン・セッション録音最新盤は、「プレミアム・リサイタル」シリーズでとりあげ、国内外で喝采を博した超本格派の2作品。ピアノ・ソナタロ短調は、"ピアノの神"リストの唯一のソナタで、技巧的にも音楽的にもきわめて複雑・高度にして深遠なもの。夜のガスパールは、ラヴェルが「歴史上最も難しいピアノ曲を書こう」と意気込んで作曲したもの。いずれも、技術面のみならず音楽表現力においてピアニストの実力が最高度に求められる。辻井伸行が世界で高く評価されるゆえんが、ここに明らかになります。

Nobuyuki Tsujii's Berlin session recording of recent works performed in his "premium Recital" series, two classical standards that have gained acclaims at home and abroad. Piano Sonata in B minor is the only sonata of Franz Liszt, the "God of the piano," profoundly artful and musically highly complex. "Gaspard of the night" was composed by Maurice Ravel, who wrote excitedly, "I want to write the most difficult piano music in history." Both works require the pianist with the highest degree in musical expressive power, and not just technical proficiency. Here it becomes clear why Nobuyuki Tsujii is highly regarded in the world.
