Kitaro 喜多郎 - Silk Road 【HD】

Kitaro - Theme from the Silk Road.
"The Silk Road: The Rise And Fall of Civilizations" is an NHK Tokushu documentary series that first aired in April 7, 1980, broadcast over a 10-year period. It took 17 years in production to complete what many consider a landmark in Japan's broadcasting television history. The intention of the program was to reveal how ancient Japan was influenced by the Silk Road trade route. The documentary was narrated by Koji Ishizaka with music composed by Kitaro, who insisted that the show be broadcast in stereo. The music was composed mainly using a Minimoog. The series of soundtracks sold millions and the success created from the program brought Kitaro international attention.

i was 6 or 7 years old and stunned by this music on the documentary on tv during the 1983 region. Totally changed my life listening to music. During my Teens, finally managed to get hold the composer and started to collection of Kitaro san works. Thank you Sir for bring such beautiful and priceless works of yours to this world. If everyone on earth listen this piece of tune, the world would be more peaceful and less war and fights will happens.

[@Dario75.]

[@seafox61]

I was introduced to Kitaro by a crewman I sailed with on container ships - 1987-1989...I cant remember his name , but I'm eternally grateful...this tune brought me down on an airplane in a storm some years ago , maybe 2014, after 3 tries at landing at Glasgow airport. With this loud in my earphones, I wasn't afraid of dying....so peaceful...graceful, and the way to go.

[@klumbucket]

Saw him in concert in Seattle. It was like being in water. Every one of your nerves being stimulated all at the same time. It was pure magic. I wish everyone could experience it once

[@栄子工藤-v1k]

私シルクロードが大好きで、子供の頃から見てました。今は神社とお寺での修行を終え。ゆっくりした時間を過ごしてますが、喜多郎さんのシルクロードと星空に、先人が生きてきたものを感じます。こんなに素敵なシルクロード、ありがとうございました。😄

喜太郎が大阪城公園のド―ムで初演奏した時は、馳せ参じました、ラジカセで、毎晩じっくりと、聞きながら大変な時期を乗り越えて来ました有難う😉👍🎶ございました💖✨🍸😊🍀

[@travellinman382]

A good friend, Ira, introduced me to this music in 1988. I always think of him when I listen to it.

[@hprtmr]

Kitaro - einfach unvergleichlich. Diese Musik begleitet mich seit Jahrzehnten. Sie weckt verschollene Erinnerungen an DInge, die längst vergessen waren.

[@guillermodiaz1949]

I remember the first time I heard it, it was around 1982. Today, 39 years later, I feel the same emotion as the first time. @Kitaro is one of the greatest new age artists of all time.

[@reneefreidin9636]

Me too, stops me in my tracks and transports me.

[@rudiibrahim6055]

This song brings me to many years ago.

[@houndandhandbag]

This beautiful theme holds so many beautiful memories for me. I walked down the aisle with my dad to this song. He passed away back in 2017. I remember him on this day being so proud. It will always remind me of him. .

The universal language of love trancends the cosmos.. This music stirs the soul because the memory of what we all once were is stirred.. we are a connected.. made from the same star stuff that everything is birthed from..

My brother introduced me to Kitaro's music when I was a teenager. He also took me to see him in concert in Philadelphia. It was so magical!!! It was so beautiful. I will always cherish his music. ☺️

[@lyum.5777]

As I read in a coment before: the world would be more peaceful if everyone would have listened to this beautiful work… I simply melt myself with this melody…

[@deRat62]

Oh me too! I feel so blessed to have found this amazing music! Kitaro is awesome!

[@seafox61]

Introduced to Kitaro by a crewman on a ship I was on around 1987 I have been forever truly grateful. Thank you.

[@tatianaabramovskaya8765]

Wow. In itself quite a story. Now I'm imagining hearing this for the first time somewhere in the middle of the ocean. At night. Under the stars.

Always was interested in Kitaro's music since childhood.

[@johnz6241]

This is such a nice edit, words can't describe what it does to my soul. Thanks for sharing

音樂是天籟之音！從黑膠片時，就珍藏到此時！ 上次偶然再見到大師的作品 "太鼓"令我太感動！ 老師仍然是神采飛揚！ 祝福老師，寿比南山！

[@samg.5423]

What a masterpiece. Been listening to this music since I watched NHK Silkroad documentary during my childhood. Love from Nepal.

[@JDere]

I could feel myself transformed back in time on the silk trade route with this music and the stars guiding me, east to west. From the Gobi Desert, to the plains, and the mountains, and more desert, so long as this music plays on, everything just sail pass. Beautiful music only Kitaro could master.

[@サラ-x1n]

18年前深夜にテレビで、喜太郎さんを見て感動しました。それからのファンです。心を揺さぶられる、素晴らしい曲です。相変わらず変わり無い心に刺さり一番聴いたら忘れられない曲です。ありがとうございます。🎶

I heard this for the first time while living in Okinawa at 12 years old and it's still giving me goosebumps after nearly 30 years.

[@anttilankila1250]

People who seek to create beauty through music are very special. One of my favorites, and today is that day, once a decade, when I play this song and just feel.

[@pctong5387]

I watched this documentary when I was a small boy in Hong Kong. It was a major TV event and it was the first TV documentary that I ever did see and I thought it was awesome.

Yeah almost 40 years. Mee too. You're right. It's amazing.

I remember, when I first discovered Kitaro in the late 80s, I listened to this (on vinyl) for 3 weeks straight, looping the hell out of it.

[@msibanker]

Thank you...this music brings me to another world, especially when hearing it at night and looking up the stars-night....and it certainly brings back some old memories-this piece of music was the theme of silk road-a tv series show back in late 1970s and early 80s by both chinese & japanese tv stations...and thank you for yr screen play....such a beautiful piece....altogether, it is an art piece....Bravo !

[@msibanker]

thx for making my earlier comment as "highlighted-comment"...did'nt ecpect that...i listened again and again and truly enjoyed yr screen-play, and of course, some old clips from that tv series resurface in my memory....such as the discovery of a mummy in the desert, even to the crew who filmed, were a big news; the wall paintings inside many buddhist's hidden cliff-hole , and the last one show, they arrived Rome....Thank you again Kaoru !

喜多郎さんは海外からのアクセスが多いのかな、とコメント欄を見て やはり70年代のニューエイジブームは連綿と受け継がれている様です。

[@EnriqueLopez-bk1oo]

Lo conocí a Kitaro en un recital que dió en Nara en 1988 en las escalinatas del templo del Daibutsu en una de las grabaciones de la NHK quedaron grabadas mis expresiones de aprobación, admiración y deleite con esa música espectacular. Gracias!!! Una belleza todo lo que compone. Está especialmente porque en ese año se hizo en esa ciudad la exposición de la ruta de la ceds.

[@ashequeshiblee6172]

While I listen to this, it feels like for a fraction of second I have transcended up to the seventh sky! Exquisitely beautiful!! Sometime soothes your soul, another time makes it cry, reminiscent of many good old memories. Thanks Emerald and thanks to Kitaro, the musical maestro.

Have this for about 40 years and still cherish it.

[@qiangguo2234]

Thanks. This video breaks me into tears. I was born at Jinquan where is one of the spot of Silk Road. I have listened to Kitaro's music for over 20 years but this is the first time I actually realized that there are links between the music to my hometown.

Es dificil no creer que el universo esta lleno de vida al oir esta musica conjuntada con el video perfecto y simplemente glorioso. Lo eleva a uno a un plano por encima de penas y miserias humanas. Gracias por el video y por la musica Señor Kitaro que disfruto desde que la escuche por primera vez hace mas de 30 años. Gracias!

[@gimhulber2716]

How can music sound so wonderful. No words can describe how one feels just listening to this "out of this world " piece of music.

[@naga-nuh]

Kitaro can imagine anything out of this world and put it in his music...awesome

Sounds like old memories ❤ thank you for bringing such beauty to our world

[@ivonnenarganes6570]

Such a beautiful setting you have created to showcase Kitaro's theme song for the magnificent documentary The Silk Road. I saw it in the 80's and never forgot the music nor the documentary. It opened my interest and love for the far east and the beautiful history of the lands of the silk road. I was fascinated by the music and the scenery and rich and diverse history of these lands. Kitaro grasped the vastness of the lands! Thank you!

[@jusufbachtiar8552]

really yes 👍

[@optimaforever]

やっぱり喜多郎さんはオアシスとシルクロードが一番良かったと思う。１９８５年のアジアライブまで。その後の古事記以降はなにか物足りない感じがします。あの頃は宗次郎さんも良かったですね。VANGELISやTANGERINEDREAMやJEAN-MICHEL JARREも素敵な名曲聞かせて良かったでっすね。今日お誕生日ですか？おめでとう御座います！;) I fondly remember Kitaro's music from his early career. I used to listen Oasis, Caravansary, Silk Road, Return to Russia, Dawn in Malaysia, Earth Born, Cloud in my walkman under summer's starry sky... Was it early to mid 80s? It was the time synthesizers were becoming mainstream with the Yamaha DX-7, Oberheims, ARP, Kurzweils, Korgs, Rolands, Emus, Fairlights, Moogs, etc. It encouraged me to start playing music (synth of course)... Thanks for the time trip :D and happy birthday too!

Öyle bir melodi ki bu her dinlediğimde içimi dağlıyor. Çocukluğum demek bu müzik. Yorganın başında otururken izlediğimiz bir TRT belgeseliyle hayatımıza girdi ve ruhumu esir aldı. Ne diyeceğimi bilemiyorum ben ne zaman dinlesem hüzün yoldaşım oluyor babamı özlüyorum çocukluğumu özlüyorum. İyi ki böyle bir melodiyi bize armağan etmişsin Kitaro.
