Akikazu Nakamura in NYC!

Hi All,

If you're lucky enough to be in NYC on Nov 11th, you have to catch this show.

Music From Japan will present two concert programs during its 31st season. The first focuses on the Japanese bamboo flute, shakuhachi. Festival 2006 opens on Feb 11 at Merkin Concert Hall with Akikazu Nakamura on shakuhachi and Michiyo Yagi on 20-string koto. The program of traditional and contemporary works features the world premiere of MFJ-commission by Masao Endo. A pre-concert talk by Ralph Samuelson will examine the shakuhachi today.

Perry, is this part of a 2006 Shakuhachi Festival? If so, I'm there, with video camera in hand.

FESTIVAL 2006 is called Masters of Tradition. It is a two day event featuring Akikazu Nakamura on Saturday, Feb 11th at 7pm and New Works by Young Composers on Sunday at 2pm

Here's the breakdown:
7pm -Talk by Ralph Samuelson
8pm - Part 1 - Pieces in the Komuso Tradition: Saji, Tsuru no Sugomori (Nesting of the Crane), Jinbo Sanya and Shika no Tone (with Ralph Samuelson).

Part two Contemporary Works - Masao Endo, Spiritual Ablutions (2005), Akikazu Namakura, Hi no Rasen (1986), Akikazu Nakamura, Shakko (1992).

I was offered two comps but my wife could use a break from the sound of flutes smile Does Jet Blue fly Seattle  - NYC?

Peace, Perry

Re: Akikazu Nakamura in NYC!

Actually, Perry, it does. smile Are you looking to sell some tickets or something? wink

So, is this not an event like the 2004 World Shakuhachi Festival, then, or just the concerts? Is there going to be a festival like 2004 anytime soon? I'm itching to do something in regards to it.
