Shakuhachi Jazz

July 18, 2009 By Leave a Comment

koichiOur old friend Yoshida Koichi has written to tell me he has a show coming up next week in Gion. Along with Koichi’s shakuhachi (Japanese flute) there will be a pianist and bass player performing a set of jazz classics such as Take Five, Summertime and In a Sentimental Mood. There will also be a joint performance with a biwa (Japanese lute) player.  The performance is next Wednesday (July 22nd) from 20:00 ~ 22:00. The charge is 2000 yen plus another 1000 yen for a drink. The location is the bar “Funny Company” (Tel: 075-561-8671).

If you haven’t seen Koichi play then please take a wee look at these videos of previous collaborations: Shakuhachi & Jazz Piano, Shakuhachi & Sitar,  Shakuhchi & Sanshin, Japanese Folk & Shakuhachi.

Here is a most convenient map.
