AKI & KUNIKO
Part 1
Scintillating Japan
We are excited to present this compelling Swiss premier: a unique, dynamic encounter where the Japanese koto meets European-style guitar. Since 2002 the duo Aki and Kuniko, (composed of Hiroaki Sasaki and Kuniko Obina) has ventured into unchartered territories, on a quest for timelessness and stirring emotions. With intricate harmonies and daring combinations, it is easy to see why this complicit duo has already hypnotised American and Asian audiences. In this performance, the marriage between Asia and the world produces electric results.
