Norio Ogha who was president of the Japanese firm Sony technology, died this week at 81 years of age. This Japanese friendly face was the one who directed the destinies of Sony for a brighter stage of the company, but the best.
Although he worked for Sony practically since its inception-entered the year seven of the company, had a passion greater than his love for the company: the music. So when Aiko Morita, founder of the company, convinces him to work for the company full time, Ogha took the reins of the fledgling business of Audio. Their need to listen to music with the best quality possible, where you will find, even if he was walking, pushed the plant engineers to create the Walkman, a device that would change dramatically the listening experience by making it personal and intimate and creating a path leading to the iPod end.
Ogha was concerned about the music all the time, and thus earned the title of father of the CD, as one of the leading proponents of this idea within the working group formed by Sony and Phillips. An urban legend states that musical ability d elos first CDs, 75 minutes, was a requirement of Ogha so they could record them Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony, complete, without having to change sides or disk.
After trying, without success of the CD, push the formats known as MD-minidisc-and supercd. His dedication to the high fidelity was constant throughout his life.
