Episode 193: 15193 Lachlan Skipworth

This is a 1-track sample from this 9-track album. Can you satisfy God with one sound? This question was repeatedly posed to Lachlan Skipworth by his shakuhachi teacher during a three-year period of intensive study in Japan. It sparked a deep exploration of cross-cultural aesthetics that finds expression in this self-titled album. At the beginning of each shakuhachi lesson, student and master begin by repeatedly playing a single note on the end-blown bamboo flute. This focuses their minds on core questions of technique: “have I made progress? Am I closer to mastery of this, shakuhachi’s most fundamental note?” Purchase the music (without talk) at: http://www.classicalsavings.com/store/p1230/Lachlan_Skipworth.html Your purchase helps to support our show!
