Koto/harmonica is definitely a unique combination. Here is a sample of their audition tape that was sent to the world harmonica festival in France. The piece is called "Dosei" (Voices of the Earth) composed by Hikaru Sawai who also composed "Akae" (Vermillion Passion).  This is their first appearance together since their May 2008 French tour. Mitsuki is playing the 17 string bass Koto here. Joe arranged the shakuhachi part for his harmonica. Just a taste of what you can look forward to on Feb. 17th.
