Khomei and the Music of Eurasia vol7

In "Khoomei and Eurasian Music vol7," Yuki Senzan will perform delicate yet powerful narration of the satsuma-biwa, Japan's oldest narrative art form, while Eiji Kamada will play the khoomei (throat song) and igil (stringed instrument) from the Republic of Tuva, South Siberia. The rare cross-cultural acoustic space will be intermingled, and a unique program will be developed in which classical and folk music will resonate with each other. The stories and breath that reside in each note will take you on a deep journey of sound.
