Subject: New Kakizakai Honkyoku CD Release

Kaoru Kakizakai has just released his first solo CD of classical
honkyoku on the Japan Victor label. He is the latest succesful recipient

It's an exceptionally beautiful, powerful, and sensitive recording of
honkyoku which I highly reccommend to everyone. I believe it can be
purchased through Mejiro (access@mejiro-jp.com) in Tokyo and from
Kakizakai sensei himself (comso@ps.ksky.ne.jp). Orders can also be taken
from me (ramos@telus.net).

2. Yamagoe 3:52
3. Sanan 7:00
4. Honshirabe 3:34
5. Sanya 7:10

Profile:
Kaoru Kakizakai was born in Chichibu, Saitama Prefecture in 1959 and
started playing the kena while he was in his teens. At 21 he started
playing the shakuhachi in the Kinko style. His teacher recognized an
unusual ability to play so he recommended him study with the
master,Yokoyama Katsuya. He graduated from the NHK Traditional Music
Conservatory and is the winner of the prestigious Kumamoto All Japan
Hogaku competition. He has recorded with Yokoyama sensei on his CDs and
videos and is a popular leader of shakuhachi workshops for the
International Shakuhachi Training Center (Kokusai Shakuhachi Kenshukan)
in Tokyo. He has performed extensively in America, Europe, Asia, and
Australia and is a faculty member of the Boulder Colorado summer
intensive camps as well as the Australian Shakuahchi Festivals.
Currently he is research fellow at the Tokyo College of Music, full time
instructor for the International Shakuhachi Kenshukan and NHK Culture
Centre and President of the International Shakuhachi Kenshu-kan Chichibu
School and Higashi Yamato School.
Best wishes in the New Year!
