Katsuya Yokoyama - Tsuru no Sugomori (The Cranes nesting) 鶴の巣籠

Here the family life of the cranes is depicted by various specialized techniques of Shakuhachi playing. As in the case of Shike no Tone, the origins of the piece are not religious. source:www.komuso.com/

竹に穴を開けただけの、楽器とも言えない楽器から発する、楽譜に表せない空気の振動を聴覚に感じる世界。肺を咽喉を舌を唇を楽器の一部として使用する、長い練習の結果の超絶技巧。それにも増して、無に近い心的なもの、尺八を志す者の一人として、ただただ聞き入りました。低頭。

I'm Japanese. One Croatian I met in Split taught me this music. We talked in FIFE, LUXOR.3/23/2012 If you remember me , please send me e-mail.

Agreed. This is amazing! So many sounds, some I never knew existed on the shakuhachi....

Can someone please tell me the name of that image in this video ?

The theme is the joy and sadness of the parent crane until it raises a child and breaks up.
