About The Gate
Product Description Capturing the mastery and rhythmic grace of this outstanding Japanese contemporary multi-instrumentalist, this album showcases Joji Hirota's moving, emotional vocals interwoven with his masterful taiko drumming and shakuhachi flute accented with string quintet. Percussionist, composer, singer, flautist - Joji Hirota joyously eludes definition. Trained as a classical musician in Japan, he has now spent over half his life in England -- freely blending instruments and influences to create a music that is uniquely his own. His flute sounds like singing, his singing sounds instrumental and his drums sound like nothing on earth. Review A string orchestra is a cushioned setting for Hirotas skin-tumbling and breath-issuing expression...the overall effect being one of supreme relaxation --Q Magazine An extravagantly lovely offering of transparent and restful sounds that is deceptively simple, yet provides endless food for thought. A purely sensual but stimulating experience not to be missed. --Songlines
