Japanese Jazz Week: Ryo Kawasaki Special
Focus on Ryo Kawasaki
Ryo Kawasaki was a Japanese jazz fusion guitarist, composer and band leader, best known as one of the first musicians to develop and popularise the fusion genre. During the 1960s, he played with various Japanese jazz groups, and also formed his own bands. In the early 1970s he moved to New York City, where he settled, working with the likes of Gil Evans and Chico Hamilton. He eventually relocated to Estonia, where he passed away in 2020.
This show takes a 2 hour trip through some of his releases.
