Mujitsu and Tairaku's Shakuhachi BBQ

The first couple of clips taken from the just-released WSF08 in Sydney.

Subsequent clips will be edited right into this post, so they'll all be in the same place.

On YouTube:
       Ajikan, played by Ting Zhang, one of the finalists in the S1 Grand Prix solo contest:

       Kibitake no Mori. Original music by Miyata Kohachiro (shakuhachi) accompanied by Haruko Watanabe on koto:

These are decent res video (656x368) and very good quality (AAC) audio files. The DVDs are 720p, and very well done.

More to come as time goes on...

Here is a link to Riley's site where there is more info on the DVDs and where they may be purchased. If you are so inclined
and have the opportunity, please post this link 'round about:

I also have code for embedding the videos, if anyone wants any.

Here's a third clip: John Kaizan Neptune, playing an original piece, Kamogawa (2003), accompanied on guitar by Mr. Naoi:

[NB: That shakuhachi he's playing has big, weird, Neptune-sized holes in it, and he korokoro's the bejesus out of it...]

To celebrate the re-invigoration of the BBQ, here is another video from the WSF08 in Sydney, Christopher Yohmei Blasdel playing
Tsukiyo no Kenshi:

One of of my favorite solo pieces.
