Aoi Kaze ni Natte

[Machine Translation] The first solo album in Japan of "Lingqin", a fantastic low tone kokyu born in Taisho era (1912-1926). The Reikin has been restored over the past ten years by Ondo Ishida, an artist who has brought a new style to the traditional Japanese kokyu instrument. The Reikin expresses the waves of the deep Sea of Japan and the lonely low tones of the Orient, and now, as this CD album, the Reikin showcases its charming middle and low tones. It contains lyrical songs from the Taisho era and original compositions by Ishida Ondo, conveying a sense of nostalgia and a soothing tone. The rich tone with a surprisingly low range is first of all shocking. Kudos to the heartbreaking project of playing a masterpiece from the Taisho era on that Reikoto, and to the effort of restoring it! ( 07.11.CD Journal )"

大正生まれの幻の低音胡弓「玲琴」の日本初ソロアルバム。日本の伝統楽器胡弓に新風を吹かせているアーテイスト石田音人が、十年の歳月をかけて玲琴を復元。深い日本海の波や東洋の寂びのある低音を表現した玲琴が、今、このCDアルバムとして、その魅力的な中低音を披露。大正時代の叙情歌と石田音人のオリジナル楽曲を収録、懐かしさと、癒しの音色を伝えている。「驚くほどの低音域の利いた豊かな音色がまず衝撃的。その玲琴で大正時代の名曲を奏でるという心憎い企画と、復元の努力に拍手!(07.11.CDジャーナル)」
