Custom Major Scale Shakuhachi
Just caught Taiko Masala at Lincon Center's Out of Doors Festival today. Jim Nyoraku Schlefer is playing my NyorakuShaku- a custom 2.0 Diatonic scale shakuhachi. This flute has now travelled from my shop in New York City to Myoanji Temple in Kyoto and back.
that's Jim on the left and Kaori on the right.
With members of Taiko Masala. The flute really rang out. I was surprised as it was pit up against the thundering drums. I'm sure the mic helped. I was also suprised to hear the subtle timbres amist the pounding rythym. Those sound techs at Lincoln center really know their craft.
Little little baby has already racked up tons of miles since it left my shop.
Sasa taking a break from the dancing backstage.
Jet wakes up after the show. Namaste, Perry
