I saw this work performed live, with Keiko Abe on marimba, in Madrid. I think it was June 1990. I was mesmerised by the music and the choreography. Tears were rolling down both my cheeks. I had a CD brought to me from Japan with works by Ifukube, played by the Shinsei Nihon Symphony Orchestra and conducted by Kazuo Yamada. The recording of this work on the CD is from September 1979.

That CD was my first experience of this master piece. Barbaric and divine, and primitive uplifting feeling at the same time. I'm glad you really enjoyed this music.
