Yakushiji -Daylight Moonlight |
|
Tracks: Disc 2: |
In
a special event for world peace, Kitaro performed
three shows in the holy temple of Yakushiji in Nara, Japan. It is also
the
resting place of the ashes of Genjo Sanzo, the 7th Century Monk who
walked the Silk Road from Japan
to India and back. It was Genjo who brought from India the sacred texts
that introduced Buddhism into China and Japan.
It was Genjo's journey that inspired the Silk Road music recalls Kitaro, "I was hoping to capture in the music his experience along the way. And the passion we expressed in the Yakushiji concert reflected, I believe, the passion of Genjo's journey." On three late-summer evening in 2001, beneath a brilliant full moon, Kitaro and his ensemble, four extraordinary young Japanese musicians, gathered in Yakushiji to perform the first concert ever presented in the venerable temple. |
