Bruce,
I'd want to understand the "style" differences - other than repertoire
- between Tozan and Kinko. What are the playing or sound
characteristics that make them different? I'd like to hear your
interpretation of this, but if you prefer, maybe you could point me
toward a CD that is "classic" Tozan shakuhachi. My CD collection is
almost all Kinko players. I have some John Neptune CD's, but since
they are original material, I can't get a feeling from them what is
Tozan about them.
Thanks,
Bill
