    Ralph Samuelson - The Universal Flute (2016)
    Contemporary Classical, World | Innova 942 | 2016 | EAC (FLAC image, cue, log) | Booklet | Various File Hosts
    Ralph Samuelson (shukuhachi), Yoko Hiraoka (koto, shamisen and voice), Tomoko Sugawara (kugo harp), Steve Gorn (bansuri)

    Shakuhachi players of old followed the path of ichion-jobutsu, or “enlightenment in a single tone.” The spiritual element of the simple bamboo flute with its notched mouthpiece and five fingerholes is essential to its existence, and part of what led Henry Cowell to refer to it as “the universal flute.” Ralph Samuelson’s album shares that name, and presents remarkably evocative works for the shakuhachi by American composers.


    For this recording, he has selected several pieces that demonstrate a true understanding of the foundation of shakuhachi music yet bring a whole new dimension to the life of the instrument. The recording takes its inspiration from Henry Cowell's lovely 1946 composition The Universal Flute and adds richly varied works by Richard Teitelbaum, Bun-Ching Lam, and Elizabeth Brown. A landmark piece by Japanese composer Teizo Matsumura sets the tone for compositions that capture the essence of shakuhachi within a contemporary idiom. Samuelson is joined by virtuoso artists Yoko Hiraoka (koto and shamisen), Tomoko Sugawara (kugo harp) and Steve Gorn (bansuri).
