-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.

Hiromitsu Agatsuma has practiced the ancient Japanese art of Tsugaru-Shamisen since the age of six, going on to win the 1988 All-Japan Tsugaru-Shamisen Competition at the tender age of 14. Known throughout the world as simply Agatsuma, this original artist has long infused the traditional sound of the shamisen-a long-necked, three-stringed, lute-like instrument-with present day, international musical influences, including blues, rock, dance music, folk, flamenco and funk. His latest release, EN, is no different. EN, which can variably mean relationship, circle or festival, is an apt name for the album, itself a festival of sound, comprising the varied influences Agatsuma has been exposed to over the years, while touring around the world, sharing his love for the traditions of Japanese music with an international audience. Further, Agatsuma's aim with this music is to bring people together, to bridge disparate cultures and to find common ground between them, much the way he has blended the sound of ancient Japanese music with the varied influences of today's contemporary music scene. The circle is completed with this collection of new material, which showcases Agatsuma's mastery of his old world instrument, alongside his expansive, encompassing musical vision.

For the first 300 customers ordered through our website, we will send you an Agatsuma logo sticker!
