Some words on this issue: YAMAMOTO HOZAN: “Le Japon Aux Quatre Saisons” (Yupiteru Records – YJ25-7032) Original 1st pressing from 1980 in virginal condition. Stunning slice of austere music presented by Hozan Yamamoto (bamboo flute), Ryo Noda (Saxophone), Sadanori Nakamura (guitar) and Yasuo Arakawa (bass). Recorded in 1979, the quartet creates a bewitching piece of music that opens up with filed recordings of birds in some far away jungle and which slowly fuses into a solitary shakuhachi call to arms that interacts with the cries of the birds. Balancing between improvisational jazz and modern composition, slowly the other quartet members join in and the music steers into some delicately crafted improvisational interplay. The musical micro cosmos slowly unfolds itself and brings out a panoramic array of sound that engulfs the aural landscape. The quartet’s intuitive approach is brimful with poetic resonance, and while busy folding and manipulating space they inhabit the gift for unexpected impact. This is free improvised music endowed with beauty; its enhancement gives the already skeletal music undercurrents of depth. One of the biggest sonic revelations of late, this is truly a beautiful piece of work. Top condition 1storiginal pressing complete with silver foil obi and insert.
