Mountain Dulcimer:
I wanted to let go of my ambition, and sense of competition.
I set aside my guitar, and made musical sounds in some other way.
The mountain dulcimer was a new instrument for me, and I gave it a try.
It has Appalachian, Celtic, and Scottish roots.
I started to strum at it.
The idea is to make a sound that calms and relaxes.
I hope you like this recording.

We played into a digital tape recorder.
This trio is Osamu Fukuzaki (piano), David Rapoport (guitar), and Toru Hoshino (bass).
We made sounds that were unplanned (improvisation).
The tones and colors are reminiscent of ancient Sanskrit Bhajans.
It is live, in the rehearsal room, and was recorded, 2016.
I hope that you enjoy this a/v work.
VIDEO 05:
04:16. Kali Ma:
Sanskrit Bhajan.
It is traditional Hindu devotional music.
It has acoustic notes and chords, and a moving drone sound of electric guitar with compression.
I wanted this recording to sound like it was being played live, with all of the musical sounds, and imperfections in it.
