Synopsis

Product Description
On this album we hear the great virtuosity of Fumie Hirara
on the koto, sometimes known as the Japanese harp, and
the subtle playing of Sôzan Chiaki Kariya, a master of the
shakuhachi flute. Contemporary compositions are included,
as well as much older pieces, some of them attributed to the
founder of koto music, Yatsuhashi Kengyô (1614 1685).
