NIPPON CONNECTION is delighted to showcase a historic gem from the silent film era: Ichiro KATAOKA, the most well-known Benshi (film-narrator) of his generation, will accompany the period piece KURAMA TENGU from 1928, supported by three musicians from Japan (piano: Ayumi KAMIYA, shamisen: Yasumi MIYAZAWA, percussion: Masayoshi TANAKA.)
