about

Atsuko Hatano plays viola, violin and cello; she also uses electronics. She has released numerous albums and attracted a great deal of attention both inside and outside Japan. Hatano also creates music for movies, TV dramas and commercials. She frequently collaborates with other musicians and artists, including Jim O’Rourke and Eiko Ishibashi.

Ryotaro Miyasaka, a percussionist active in genres ranging from pop to experimental music, has been extremely busy of late. In 2022, he released the CD "Odd Jobs Are the High Road of Work" (ftarri-967), an improvised duo performance with guitarist Tetuzi Akiyama, on the Ftarri label.

"Dinosaur and Gems" documents a duo concert held at Ftarri on February 27, 2023. The two tracks on this album (21 and 29 minutes) show Hatano (viola and electronics) and Miyasaka (percussion) crossing swords furiously, but at times playing calmly and in perfect synch.

波多野敦子はヴィオラ、ヴァイオリン、チェロなどを演奏し、エレクトロニクスも使ったライヴ演奏をおこなう。多彩なアルバムのリリースも相次いでいて、国内外で注目度は高い。映画、ドラマ、CMへの音楽提供も多い。Jim O'Rourke、石橋英子を始めとする他ミュージシャン / アーティストとのコラボレーションにも精力的に取り組んでいる。

宮坂遼太郎は打楽器奏者。活動範囲はポップなものから実験的なものまで多岐に渡り、近年多忙な日々を送っている。2022年には、ギター奏者の秋山徹次との即興演奏デュオCD『雑用は仕事の王道』(ftarri-967) を Ftarri レーベルからリリース。

本アルバムは2023年２月27日、Ftarri でおこなったデュオ・コンサートの模様を収録。波多野 (ヴィオラ、エレクトロニクス) と宮坂 (打楽器類) による、丁々発止に渡り合いながらも悠然と息のあったところも見せる、21分と29分の２曲を収録。

Delightful album! The piano skill, with purposely driven restraint has hints of Feldman. One rarely finds such appreciation for the silence between the notes. Richard Erickson
