Myoan Sanjunana Sei Tanikita Muchiku Shu, Vol. 1
Tanikita Muchiku Roan, 1878-1957
taken from Tozan-ryu: An Innovation of the Shakuhachi Tradition from Fuke-shu to Secularism by Takahashi Tone, PhD (via The International Shakuhachi Society):
“37th Abbot of Meian-ji from 1949. Ten years after Kobayashi Shizan’s death, the Myoan-kyokai, in association with the soke (the head person of a Ryu) of different shakuhachi ryu, elected Tanikita Muchiku (1878- 1950) as his successor. Born in Kyoto in the eleventh year of Meiji (1878), he was first initiated into the Myoan Taizan style of shakuhachi by Takaya Yuchiku, a student of Higuchi taizan; later, in the forty-first year of Meiji(1908) , Tanikita began to study with Higuchi Taizan. It is well known that the bereaved family of Higuchi Taizan claimed Tanikita Muchiku to be the true bearer of Taizan’s style.”

Improv in the Evening
I recorded this improvisation on a pretty evening at the end of last summer. A microphone hanging out of the window to accompany my guitar loops atop a synth pattern. Video was captured in the same area a few moments later.
