More Japanese music. This blog's visitors have shown much interest in the past posts about Japanese/Asian music. From the liner notes:

Recorded in Tokyo in astonishingly modern studios, the music features the great Mamoru Miyagi, son of the late - and internationally noted - Michio Miyagi, the favorite Japanese composer and koto virtuoso of the Twentieth Century. Young Mamoru is renowned as a shakuhachi (bamboo flute) soloist. Along with him are heard graduates of the University of Arts, in Tokyo, playing authentic Japanese instruments and songs.
