Recorded in Kyoto s Hounji Temple Island of Bows brings together the world s leading performer of the Native American flute R. Carlos Nakai (Navajo-Ute) with the Wind Travelin Band Shonosuke Ohkura and Oki Kano. Nakai s flute is matched by the delicate tranquility of the traditional Japanese shakuhachi shamizen and koto and gracefully blends traditional sounds from East and West.
