Yasuaki Shimizu
& Saxophonettes: Attoiuma
26 September at Super Deluxe
Suddenly this September . . . a fleeting
eternity.
Ever the bold musical matchmaker, Yasuaki Shimizu has married Heptatonic
and Pentatonic Scales out in the great minimalist desert. Not long
after a most harmonious honeymoon, however, the Pentatonic bride began
to dominate the relationship. Five reed masters now gather at Lady
Pentatonic's request to create a unique tonal space to accompany her
sensually swaying dance. As the saxy sounds slowly spiral into the
postnuptial night, let the reed masters challenge your multidimensional
sensibilities. Come experience the consummation of this eternal fleeting
moment.

Who's Camus Anyway? (Camus Nante Shiranai)
Following its screenings at the Director's
Fortnight of the Cannes
film festival, where it received a 4-minute standing ovation,
and the New
York Film Festival, where it was the first Japanese film
in four years to screen in the main program, Mitsuo Yanagimachi's
youth-group drama Who's
Camus Anyway? opened the Japanese Eyes segment of the Tokyo
International Film Festival and went on to receive the Best
Picture Award. Yasuaki Shimizu's soundtrack for the film makes brilliant
use of his hi-tech command for a low-tech attack. The tension-filled
finale, in particular, is a must-see/must-hear! |
