Kitaro Dinner 2026 July 5, 2026 On 4 July 2026 (Saturday), Kitaro-san, his wife Franci and I caught up for a fun four-hour dinner, whilst on their private visit to Singapore. It’s always a delightful treat sharing a fun meal with the Kitaros. Fun Dinner At The Tanglin Club (above image). We ate and chatted till we were the last guests in the restaurant. After that, the restaurant staff asked to take photographs with Kitaro-san. It’s always fun to catch up with Mr. and Mrs. Kitaro-san whenever they are in town, Especially special when they request to have dinner with me on their private visit, instead of during a busy concert tour. It’s Tiger Beer Time! (above image). This is Kitaro-san’s third time to the Tanglin Club. Photo courtesy of Franci. No Need for Idle Chatter (above image). Just briefly letting the inviting ice-cold Ale lubricate the mellow Soul. Each holding tightly to our drinks! Haha. Photo courtesy of Franci. Kitaro-san Signing My Stack Of Kitaro CD Collection (above image). Kitaro-san graciously elaborately signed all fourteen of my CD covers, patiently collected throughout the years. Kitaro-san Signing My “Thinking Of You” CD Cover (above image). This Album (vinyl and CD) has special significance for both Kitaro-san and me. It, not only, bagged Kitaro-san a glorious Grammy Award for “Best New Age Album” (2001) but the Album Artwork features my B/W portrait of him shot during soundcheck at one of his sold-out concerts. “Thinking Of You” Vinyl Sleeve Kitaro-san Signed The Vinyl Sleeve Of My Portrait Of Him In “Thinking Of You” (above image).

Andreas Vollenweider - Treasures of the Archives – Part 39 🎵Treasures of the Archives – Part 39: Memories of ✨“The Play Of The Five Balls“ | Montreux Jazz Festival 2011, Switzerland✨ „‚The Play Of The Five Balls‘ from the album White Winds is another example of how we take the main elements of an existing song and then wander off to completely new territory. We call this thematic improvisation. For this approach to work, the foundations of the music have to be deliberately kept simple, not to engage the intellectual mind, but rather to release all expectation and allow the music to take shape of its own accord, as far as ever possible. By setting aside the urge to conquer the instrument and to display acrobatic virtuosity, you set aside much of your ego. This creates space for the unexpected — which, at times, can lead to a rare and precious discovery.“ – Andreas Andreas Vollenweider: harp Walter Keiser: drums Andi Pupato: percussion Steff la Cheffe: Beat Box Daniel Kuffer: winds & keys Sandro Friedrich: etnic winds Oliver Keller: guitars Greg Galli: keys and voice Daniel Pezzotti: Cello
