Product Description
Two biwa players narrate an episode of 'Tairano Kiyomori' from the classic Tale of the Heike (Heike Monogatari). Mari Uehara plays Chikuzen biwa from Fukuoka and Seishu Suda plays Satsuma biwa from Kagoshima, with the accompaniment of yokobue (flute). Tale of the Heike was originally written for biwa accompaniment and tells the battles of the Taira and Minamoto clans. It set the standard by which many warriors vowed to live.
