Tanaka, Shigeo

Yumi Kagura

Shigeo Tanaka was a master of the yumi (bow), an uncommon Japanese single-string percussion instrument. This release features the track 'Takusa Saimon', an ancient piece of sacred Shinto music, named 'Kagura'. It was performed with the yumi, voice, flute and metal percussion.

'Yumi Kagura' was previously available as a ridiculously obscure 1990 cassette release.
