summvs" is the fifth and latest collaborative work by 坂本龍一 and Alva Noto.
The title "summvs" is derived from a coined word combining the Latin words "summa" (English: sum) and "versus" (English: towers). Following "vrioon" released in 2002, "insen" and "revep" in 2005, and "utp_" in 2007, "summvs", the final work in the series, completes the collaboration project consisting of a total of five works.

The fusion of the piano's individual tones by 坂本龍一, which are only a few notes, but filled with emotion and passion, and the sine waves of Alva Noto, gives birth to a new aesthetic of piano tones.

The new album will be showcased under a unique sound visualization and state-of-the-art technology and stage design on their European tour, starting with a performance at the Roundhouse in London on May 12 and continuing through June 19.
