A fusion of poetry and melody, with burning passion amidst silence.
A profound sound world woven together with acoustic guitar and unique vocals. A strong emotion resides within the restrained expression, and the poetic composition shows the depth of Japanese folk music.
Hasegawa Kiyoshi's soft voice blends with the quiet guitar sounds, painting a deep shadow. The melody is gentle, but there is a definite strength in the choice of words. The paucity of sounds creates space, and even silence functions as part of the music. The emotional amplitude may seem small, but it radiates heat from within, and the more you listen, the deeper the passion becomes. This is a masterpiece that transcends the formality of folk music and takes the beauty of Japanese singing to the next level.
