Contrabass & Koto: Jun Kawasaki & Michiyo Yagi
A rare meeting of two iconoclasts. Jun Kawasaki is one of Japan's leading improvisers on the contrabass, an expressionist who incorporates advanced techniques and elements of performance art into his playing. Internationally acclaimed Michiyo Yagi is the premier virtuoso of the traditional Japanese transverse harp known as the koto. This will be their first performance together as a duo.
• Jun Kawasaki: contrabass
• Michiyo Yagi: 21-string koto, 17-string bass koto
