Dave Eggar just got back from the UK and an amazing mini tour with Rennee Fleming.
Today we went to the press conference of documentary film "442 -Live with honor, die with dignity-" held in downtown LA.
This movie is the second installment of Japanese American trilogy directed by Junichi Suzuki following the previous documentary film "Toyo's Camera".
The film focuses on the 442nd Infantry Regiment consisted of mainly Japanese American soldiers who fought not only against enemy but fought against prejudice. It reveals the unknown stories during WWII.
Kitaro will release the original soundtrack album "442" in this July.
In this soundtrack album, some quotes from the monologues with the 442nd veterans are used as an introduction for each song, and it makes this album much more than a soundtrack in that you will experience first hands, than real life struggles of these heroes.
We will update more info soon!

-Jazz Concert featuring Tsugaru Shamisen with Taiko and Piano-
Wednesday, May 19, 8PM
Cowell Theatre, Fort Mason Center
Opening Night Reception at 6:30PM in the Lobby for the concert audience and guests
Japan's Tsugaru Shamisen/Jazz sensation Hiromitsu Agatsuma infuses traditional Japanese sounds with contemporary musical influences of blues, rock, dance music, folk, flamenco and funk. The result is a truly unique World Music x Jazz phenomena as Agatsuma breaks new ground with his fresh approach and gives new life to this traditional art form. Accompanying Agatsuma are Yoichi Nozaki on piano and Mikita Hase and Hiroyuki Okada on Wa-daiko Japanese traditional drums. This concert is the only west-coast appearance of their 2010 U.S. tour and opens the seventh annual San Francisco International Arts Festival.

Yoshida Brothers will be performing at Otakon 2010 that takes place in Baltimore, Maryland, USA.
Date : July 30
Venue : Baltimore Convention Center, Baltimore, Maryland, USA
Here is the interview with Yoshida Brothers by Askew
The Yoshida Brothers are not your typical rock stars. There is no air of pretention, no heavy eyeliner or dyed hair, no “grudge against the world”. In fact, I’m not even sure they are rock stars. Brothers Ryoichiro and Kenichi don’t quite fit the mould but they are headlining this year’s Otakon, following in the leather-booted footsteps of L’Arc~en~Ciel, and Mucc. It’s certainly an unusual choice. Curious? Maybe we should let them take it from here…
“The instrument we play is called “Tsugaru Shamisen”, starts Ryoichiro, “which originated in Aomori, Japan about 120 years ago. [Traditional] Shamisen has been popular in Japanese music for the past 500 years but Tsugaru Shamisen is a rhythmical instrument with a unique performance method, playing a role in both melody as well as percussion.”
Kenichi elaborates, “We are Tsugaru Shamisen performers who create and perform songs with unique and free ideas, updating traditional music for a new generation. We place great value on passing on the tradition to the new generation.”
