concerts of this month

improvising story and sound
Shinji Ishii (author) + Kakushin Tomoyoshi (SATSUMA Biwa lute)

Shigeri Kitsu presents Japanese folk songs such as love songs, lullaby, festive songs, work songs, etc., rooted in regional communities from south to north of Japan.
These simple songs portray season's scenery, respect for nature, celebration and sorrow to everyday life, and the emotional attachment to the region.
Her expansive "Japanese Voice" passionately evokes us original Japanese landscapes and rhythms.

Voice and Japanese drum, absolute acoustic.
guest | Kasumi Watanabe, 25 strings Koto player
