Description:

Kuniko Kato's 5th album, Reich's "Drumming"! Reich's acclaim! World's first! All parts performed by one person! Japan's leading percussionist, Kuniko Kato, released "J.S. Bach: Unaccompanied Works for Marimba (CKD 586S)" in 2017, which won Linn Records' Best Album of the Year and the 10th CD Shop Grand Prize in the Classical category. The CKD 586S won the Linn Records Best Album of the Year award and the 10th CD Shop Awards in the classical category. The fifth album by Scottish high-end audio manufacturer Linn, which brings together the best of technology, returns to Steve Reich, recording his masterpiece "Drumming," which made minimalist music known to the world! Noriko Kato, who has participated in the world tours of the dance company Rosas during her time in Europe and has performed countless gigs with the Ensemble Ictus, overdubbed all 12 parts herself, including percussion (bongo, marimba, glockenspiel), voice, piccolo, and whistling, and created an album that is never performed by an ensemble. The drumming is a masterpiece of detail that cannot be expressed by any other ensemble.Steve Reich himself also commented, "This is the first recorded work in which one player plays all the drumming parts. Captured with amazing clarity along with the finest detail. It is a discovery of great pleasure." This is the first recording of one player playing all parts of the drumming. Tokyo M-Plus
