John Kaizan Neptune Recordings Sky Spirit |
John "Kaizan" Neptune has
expanded the possibilities of the Japanese shakuhachi flute to
embrace the realms of jazz and fusion. At the same time, through
many long years of training in the classical repertoire of the
instrument, he has become one of the most outstanding exponents
of the shakuhachi currently active in Japan. He is joined by musicians
who together create music which transcends national boundaries
and the origins of the instruments which they perform. It is surely
music such as this which deserves the label of "World Music"
and which is likely to serve as a stepping stone towards the music
of the future. --- Akira Ebato
