	Dance for the One in Six	Сякухати : John Kaizan Neptune
Whose playground? Mine. The melody explores some of the ideas I've had while quite literally playing around during daily practice. The piece uses only the open fingering on the shakuhachi, producing the fundamental notes D, F, G, A, and C. The idea of the duet (achieved on this recording by overdubbing) reflects the patterns and tonal colors I remember hearing on a recording of African pygmy yodeling- the way pygmies keep in touch with one another as they forage through the forests. The interlocking effect is fascinating to me.
	Joy	Сякухати : John Kaizan Neptune
PLAYGROUND (ANRAKU - PEACE AND HAPPINESS) Whose "Playground?" Mine. The melody explores some of the ideas I've had while literally "playing around" during my daily practice. The piece uses only open fingerings, producing the fundamental notes D, F, G, A and C. The idea of the duet (achieved on the record by the technique of "overdubbing") sort of reflects the patterns and tonal colors I remember hearing on a recording of African Pygmy yodeling - the way they use to keep in touch with each other as they forage through the forests. The interlocking effect is fascinating to me and I hope to the listener. MUSIC STUFF: The first section is as described above; the second is in 9/8 time (2 + 3 + 2 + 2); and the last short section, involving repeated notes and trills, is in 4/4 time.
