Asia
The album Asia was a 1984 Shanghai live recording and is one of
a set of six (Astral
Voyage,
Full Moon Story,
Millennia,
India , and
Silver Cloud). These
Kitaro recordings were released by Geffen
Records in the fall of 1985 and is a sample of the music which
has made
Kitaro the most
eminent contemporary musician of his country.
Living at the foot of Mt. Fuji in a house surrounded by
woodlands, Kitaro creates
his music with the freedom and intensity of a child at play.
The synthesizer, which he learned in Europe, enables him to work
alone in his studio, inventing sound that reflects his years
of travels and contemplation. Harmony
springs from his contradictions: sounds from hundred-year old
stringed instruments weave through his synthesizer imaginings.
The cultures and instruments of Japan, India, China and Europe
join and embrace in his music.
Throughout Asia, his concerts are major
events. Millions come to see Kitaro
perform his magic, and he has played to concert audiences of
more than 50,000 in Japan, Hong Kong, China, Malaysia and
elsewhere."
