Quotes from the Media:

“ An amazing Shakuhachi player Marco Lienhard has come out with a new CD, truly a very gifted and wonderful sense of musicality. Not since “ National Treasure” Yamaguchi Goro’s rendition of Kinko Honkyoku music have I felt the need to listen to more of his music. His rendition of Honkyoku form the Watazumi style is incredible and everyone studying the style should listen to it. His powerful and heartfelt rendition of Amazing grace reminded me of such gospel singers as Mahalia Jackson. ”

What is Kaitoryu? Kaitoryu is a temple piece (kagura) from the Nagoya Aichi prefecture area. It is played by several groups in the area and uses two drums, one shime and a nagado on the side. It is one of the few traditional pieces that uses two drums and stick twirls are done with the left hand. A great way to expand your taiko horizon. Tsukiboshi Sensei recreated this song for the Kaitoryu style in Tobishima Village after the typhoon destroyed the temple in the 50s. Tsukiboshi Sensei taught Marco and the other Ondekoza members the song so that it could expand to other parts of the world.

Quotes from the Media:

“Something strange and wonderful is coming your way. There was thunder and there was lighting and there was the sea crashing against a cliff, and volcanoes. For a few utterly transporting minutes, there was expressed in the metaphors of merciless rhythms and fluttering melodies, anything a listener had experienced, would experience and could imagine experiencing.”

ERIC HUBLER, WASHINGTON POST

“ In its choreography and its vigor taiko becomes almost a martial art, one in which violence has been sublimated into disciplined exultation a blend of high-decibel virtuosity and sinful shakuhachi solos. Precision and energy are paramount here and the product, for me, was medicinal. It is a combination narcotic, stimulant and vitamin pill.”

Bernard Holland, NY Times

This performance is made possible in part by funds from East Winds, Inc. and in part with public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs and in part by public funds from the Fund for Creative Communities/NY Council on the Arts Decentralization Program, administered by the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council.
