Yamashita Kazuhito

Description:

This recording is full of surprise at how far one guitar can go. Yamashita, however, has no intention of showing off his own technique, and the arrangements and performances are the result of the outpouring of affection for the pieces he has chosen, which was unavoidable and inevitable. The special techniques used in "Pictures at an Exhibition" and the ferocious beat of "The Firebird" are just two examples of the spectacular performances, which are almost bordering on acrobatics, that make this disc an overwhelmingly moving experience.　［Comments courtesy of BMG JAPAN Inc.
