- Music Interviews
In this episode, I discuss with young composer and Kodo performer Ryotaro Leo Ikenaga about the strict 2-year apprenticeship training -away from civilization- to become a Kodo member, how they rehearse new compositions, how they reach such a group precision and resonance, the deep spiritual meaning of playing these giant drums and much more. Join us in this journey to traditional rituals and contemporary thoughts about ancient instruments.
