Kishi Bashi - On Composition (Berklee Intervals)

Berklee Alumnus Kishi Bashi discusses the creative process behind his latest album, Omoiyari. The album inspired his creation of a songfilm of the same name, which explores the history of Japanese Americans during World War II, minority identity and the shared human experience.
