Kaori Komura, performs with Korean traditional percussion in various groups, and Yutaka Hirose, performs mainly using tuba. This recorded live was the first time they played duo improvisations together.
In these sessions, Komura maintained a balance in his intonation, and kept facing the sound and space with strong blows from start to finish. Hirose, on the other hand, played a moving, undulating sound from a tuba tilted low, and responded with an extremely abstract and moving sound. We recommend that you listen to the recording of this violently colliding performance at the same high volume as on the day.

さまざまなグループに所属し韓国の伝統打楽器を使用した演奏に取り組む香村かをりと、主にチューバによる演奏をおこなう廣瀬寛。そんな二人がはじめてデュオでの即興演奏をおこなったのが、今回録音された公演であった。
ここでの香村は、抑揚のバランスを取りながらも終始強い打撃で音や空間と向き合っていた。対する廣瀬は低い位置に傾けたチューバから動きをもったうねりのある音を吹き鳴らし、極めて抽象的かつ動きのある音で呼応した。激しくぶつかり合うようなこの演奏の録音は、当日と同じように大きな音量で聴いていただくことを推奨する。
