about

霊性と演奏
私のCDを聴かれた、スウェーデンボルグの研究者である高橋和夫氏からお手紙を戴いた。「ふしぎなアフリカ木琴で奏せられる音楽に触れ幸せです。幽か、静謐であるかと思うと、原始の水音や空気の振動、潮のうねりのようにも響いてきます。大地や植物のみならず、星空や宇宙に満ちている神秘な流れに身を委ねるような気持ちにもなります。」
ー高橋和夫氏からの手紙よりー

さらに、神韻縹渺、すき透るような音楽であり、「実在の音」と、大変恐れ多い感想を戴いた。私のCDアルバム「SERENTE」を聴かれ、スウェーデンボルグが、同様に天界の状態を表す「平安の静謐」tranquility of peace という言葉をよく使われたことも知った。
清明なる実在として、日本の自然や風景、自然の霊性の、匂うような表出こそ、私の演奏の心から望むところである。
今回のアルバム「ascension」は、感覚的とも言える霊性を主題にしたものだ。

I received the letter about my music from Professor Kazuo Takahashi who is Emanuel Swedenborg's researcher. Fortunately I touch the music performed by Xylophone of wonderful Africa.
It is subtle and profound or calm. It is echoed also like a primitive sound of water, vibration of air, and the surge of tide.
It also becomes the feeling that the body is left to the mystery flow filled in the ground, a plant or a starlit sky, or the universe.
-The letter from Professor Kazuo Takahashi -

Furthermore, I got the comment "It is transparent music and is a "reality" music." from him.
I heard from the professor Takahashi that Emanuel Swedenborg often used the words "tranquility of peace."
Feeling which smells of clean and bright nature and scenery of Japan, and natural spirituality.
My performance is just going to desire it from the bottom of its heart.
The themes of this album "ascension" are sensuous and spirituality.
