Description
This was brought from Japan by our family. It is pretty difficult to come across. Hozan Yamamoto's Silver World LP. Speed is 33. It includes cover, and insert. Our family's name is written on the sticker on one side. The record itself is in like new condition. The sleeve is in excellent condition. There is a little fading on the sleeve from age, that's it. You will be thoroughly delighted with this one.
A little background on Hozan Yamamoto: Head of the Hozan-kai Shakuhachi Guild, performer, teacher, composer and pioneer in expanding the possibilities of the Shakuhachi, Hozan Yamamoto attended the Seiha Music College graduating in 1962. After formation with Reibo Aoki and Katsuya Yokoyama of the widely acclaimed "Shakuhachi Sanbon Kai" trio in 1966, he electrified the conservative traditional scene by applying his talents to a variety of crossover collaborations beginning with the jazz idiom in 1967. These have led him to work with such world renowned musicians as Ravi Shankar, Jean Pierre Rampal, Tony Scott and Gary Peacock. Through the seventies and eighties to the present he has led the Shakuhachi world receiving innumerable honors, including Ministry of Cultural Affairs and Education Ministerial awards for his performances, recordings (numbering in the hundreds) and compositions. He currently serves as lecturer at The Tokyo University of Fine Arts and Music. Designated Living National Treasure in 2002.
