Description:
Watarase" is an important piece of music that sparked the current worldwide Japanese jazz boom and is one of jazz pianist Fumio Itabashi's masterpieces. The first volume of the definitive series of the Best of Watarase, a collection of previously unreleased and independently released very minor takes of this piece, has finally been released! Minoru Wakasugi, a pioneer of the Japanese jazz scene, compiled the unknown takes of Watarase, which is now in the limelight of jazz fans around the world, from the perspective of 2023. Composed by Fumio Itabashi in the early 80's, the beautiful melody of this song is reminiscent of the music of Pharaoh Sanders, Ahmad Jamal, and Dollar Brand, or even surpassing them, it is a superb and super spiritual jazz anthem of which Japan is proud. When this song was first released, it gradually gained popularity in the jazz scene, and it was a popular song that no one in that area did not know. This album looks back over 40 years of history and carefully selects "Watarase" to be heard today. It is no exaggeration to say that Fumio Itabashi is the Tatsuo Yamamoto of the jazz world, and we can enjoy a fragment of his life here as he continues to express the ultimate in the art of jazz with all his might. There is no more "Watarase" in Fumio Itabashi's hometown (Ashikaga). It is now the Watarase of the world.When I returned to my hometown to confirm this, I felt the need for a new story as I looked at the river that had become "WATARASE" for a while. About 20 years have passed since "Itabashi Fumio Anthology watarase," the starting point of the Japanese jazz boom. Let's go to "WATARASE", the "WATARASE" that has yet to be seen! --Minoru Wakasugi
