Description:

World-class flamenco guitarist, 20th anniversary albumFlamenco guitarist Jin Oki made his debut in 2002, and in 2010, he won the International Competition "5th "Niño Ricardo" Flamenco Guitar Competition in Murcia", one of the three major flamenco guitar competitions in Spain, and became the first Japanese guitarist to win this competition. He became the first Japanese to achieve this feat, and his close coverage of the competition on TBS's "Jounetsu Tairiku" (Continent of Passion), which drew a huge response. In honor of the 20th anniversary of his debut, this new album is based on Oki's passion for flamenco guitar, which continues to evolve, and aims to return to his roots by honestly making the sounds in his own head into sound. The album features three international guests, Alexis French (piano), U-Zhaan (tabla), and Alberto Lopez (guitar), with whom he has been in close contact for some time, and is a fitting addition to the 20th anniversary album.
