Aoki Reibo

Aoki Reibo has been played on NTS in shows including Throwing Shade, featured first on 12 September 2015. Songs played include Shika No Tone.

Reibo Aoki (青木静夫, 青木鈴慕, Tokyo, Japan, October 10, 1935 - August 21, 2018) was a Japanese shakuhachi player.

He learned to play the shakuhachi from his father, Reibo Aoki I and became head of that lineage in 1975 becoming Reibo Aoki II. His rich sound and stunning performances in both the classical Kinko Ryu style and contemporary music have become a standard in shakuhachi music.

In 1999 Aoki Reibo was designated as one of the Living National Treasures of Japan for Shakuhachi.
