Description
Der japanische Shakuhachi (Bambusflöte)-Meister Teruhisa Fukuda präsentiert Stück, die bis ins 17. Jahrhundert reichen und etwa Zen-Mönchen der Meditation dienen. The shakuhachi is an end-blown bamboo flute with one dorsal and four frontal holes and a bevelled notch as mouthpiece. There are two elements in the name of the instrument?: shaku refers to an ancient measurement which is the equivalent of 30,3 cm?; hachi means eight. Originally shakuhachi thus refers to a flute that measures 1,8 shaku, that is, 54,5 cm. Teruhisa Fukuda: Born in 1949, Teruhisa Fukuda is an eminent artist who has explored a vast range of musical techniques from, both, traditional and contemporary music. For this CD, 2LP Master Fukuda chose a series of seven pieces from a repertoire dating back to the seventeenth century. These were originally performed by monks belonging to the Fuke sect of zenBuddhism, who viewed their instrument as means for meditation. The seven pieces are destined to be played solo, in the spirit of zen.
