Have You Read That Manga? - Not Yet.

[Machine Translation] In June 2024, percussionist Ryotaro Miyasaka held a series of three consecutive days of concerts in Tokyo's Futari space, one of which was a duo performance with Takako Minekawa. Unlike a normal concert, this concert was held not only on the stage in front of the audience, but also in a space behind the audience, where the instruments used for both were placed. The duo played mainly with Minekawa in the front and Miyasaka in the back, but they continued to produce sounds (and sometimes voices) for about an hour per set, frequently moving back and forth between the front and the back as if they were circling around the audience. This CD contains the entire performance. For the performance, Minekawa used synthesizers, glass tubes, and greeting modules, while Miyasaka used various percussion instruments, electronics, and even a little upright piano. The work is unique in that various sounds appear in various forms and seem to continue without any connection, but it gives a sense of dynamism, as if a single story is developing with many episodes.

パーカッショニストの宮坂遼太郎は、2024年6月に東京、Ftarri のスペースで3日間連続のコンサートをおこない、そのうちの1日が嶺川貴子とのデュオ公演だった。この日は通常のコンサートとは違い、客席前方のステージだけでなく客席後方にもスペースを設けて、両方に使用する楽器を配置。主に嶺川が前方、宮阪が後方で演奏するも、お互い客席のまわりを巡るように頻繁に前方と後方を行きつ戻りつしながら1セット約1時間、音 (時には声も)を出し続けた。本CDには、この演奏を丸ごと収録。演奏には、嶺川はシンセサイザーをメインに、ほかにガラス管、グリーティング・モジュールを、宮坂は各種パーカッション、エレクトロニクス (ほんのちょっとアップライト・ピアノも)を使用。いろんな音が雑多に現れながら脈絡なく続いているようでいて、ひとつの物語がいくつものエピソードを盛り込みつつ進展するようなダイナミズムを感じさせる異色作。
