The next year will be in the name of fusion of electronics and the shakuhachi.

Hi Merek, I had the pleasure of performing in an ensemble with Kumiko Shuto several years ago. In fact, if my memory serves me correctly, Dan no Ura was the piece she played. She became a mark in the biwa world from that time in my mind that hasn't been surpassed. Powerful, elegant and very musical. Thanks for posting that video.
