Kitaro (Domo Records)

 

The Grammy and Golden Globe-winning artist has received his 16th Grammy nomination for a project recorded with a full orchestra, entitled “Symphony Live in Istanbul” (Domo Records).

 

Kitaro debuted his extensive all-new live production with a full orchestra on Feb. 14, 2013 with the Santa Rosa Symphony at Weill Hall at the Green Music Center in Rohnert Park.

The production then hit the international circuit with stops in Warsaw, Moscow, Bucharest, Istanbul and other historic locations.

Commenting on the Grammy nomination, Kitaro said, “It has always been my dream to perform with a full orchestra in these beautiful and historic cities.

This Grammy nomination is very special to me.”

He added, “In 1980, I began composing and producing music about the passageway and excursions of the Silk Road.

This past spring, I embarked upon my first symphonic tour that reached Russia, Eastern and Central Europe, and had the distinct pleasure of performing in Istanbul, a place where from ancient times to modern times has flourished as an important hub of the Silk Road where Europe and Asia meet.

“I am extremely grateful that my dream of performing in Istanbul finally came true. It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience and in addition to my many experiences, I met a host of great people from Istanbul and the neighboring countries.

As a remembrance of my amazing music caravan and as a tribute to those I encountered along the way, I recorded this musical experience and performance as a CD.

It is my gift to everyone, in Istanbul and around the world, to experience and enjoy.”

The CD was recorded at the Halic Congress Center in Istanbul, Turkey over two evenings in March 2014.

It features new musical material as well as eight of Kitaro’s most requested and popular compositions.

This album includes Kitaro’s Golden Globe award-winning theme from the Oliver Stone film “Heaven and Earth,” music from his critically acclaimed “Kojiki” album and “Silk Road” soundtrack, and two compositions from his Grammy-winning album “Thinking of You.” New material includes a previously unreleased composition, “Kokoro (Part II).”
