Business Overview

It has been more than 20 years since I started playing gagaku, but I had never heard of a gagaku recital with only a ryuteki flute solo. In ordinary recitals, in addition to solo music, it is customary for supporting performers to play with other instruments, but this time, for the first recital, I decided to try a recital with only the ryuteki flute, thinking first of all about how to make people feel the appeal of the ryuteki flute.
It is composed of three parts, and in the first part, we will select a daikyoku "Suiko" from the classics, and listen to the profound music suitable for daikyoku. The second part was a solo composed by Sukeyasu Shiba, who is known as a rare master, as a modern piece composed by a player, and the third part was a modern piece composed by a non-player. I want to bring out the hidden potential of Ryuteki with three different tunes.
