Our Take

Karin Nakagawa, Hans Tutzer, and Paolino Dalla Port come together like a musical Voltron on their latest album "Tamayura." This trio brings a fresh approach to the traditional Japanese koto and guitar pairing, creating a sound that is as captivating as it is unexpected.

From the moment the first notes of "Tamayura" hit your ears, you can't help but be drawn in by the infectious energy that oozes from every track. Nakagawa's masterful koto playing is a thing of beauty, weaving intricate melodies that dance around Tutzer and Dalla Port's skillful guitar accompaniment. Their chemistry is undeniable, each musician playing off the other with a sense of ease that can only come from years of collaboration.

Tracks like "Moonlit Dance" and "Sakura Blossoms" showcase the trio's ability to seamlessly blend traditional Japanese influences with modern flair, creating a sonic landscape that is both nostalgic and forward-thinking. The result is an album that feels timeless yet fresh, a true testament to the artistry of these three musicians.

In a world where music can often feel formulaic and uninspired, "Tamayura" is a breath of fresh air. Nakagawa, Tutzer, and Dalla Port have created something truly special with this album, and it's a must-listen for anyone who appreciates music that pushes boundaries and defies expectations. So grab your headphones, press play, and let yourself be swept away by the mesmerizing sounds of "Tamayura."
