Album Notes & Community Reviews
The Japanese ensemble explores wildly eclectic, highly spirited acoustic compositions entirely rooted in Eastern European folk and Jewish klezmer traditions. 'Aruku Hito' features deeply passionate, highly intricate interplay between clarinets, accordions, and marching-band brass, played with incredible improvisational jazz energy. It remains a beautifully quirky, deeply joyful hidden masterpiece of 90s avant-garde global fusion.
