Japanese Jazz Week: Soul Bamboo - Traditional Instruments In Japanese Jazz

Tokyo, 05.05.21

Soul Bamboo looks at a particular subset of the jazz fusion movement of the 70s and 80s, where traditional Japanese instruments were introduced into jazz sounds.

Players utilized traditional instruments such as the shakuhachi, a traditional bamboo flute, and the Koto, a plucked zither instrument. This two hour special features records by the likes of Kiyoshi Yamaya, Minoru Muraoka, and Hozan Yamamoto.

今回の「日本のジャズ」では、『Soul Bamboo』から垣間見る70年代と80年代に起きた日本のジャズフュージョン界におけるムーヴメントに注目していきます。この年代では、日本に古来から伝わる、尺八や琴といった楽器がジャズシーンに頻繁に用いられていました。今回は、こうした伝統的な日本の楽器を用いたジャズミュージシャン・山屋清、村岡実、山本邦山らの楽曲を中心にお届けします。Translated by Satoko Akune.
