KO-BANASHI by Ten Ten

ten ten's second album "KO-BANASHI" (SHORT STORIES), grew out of the rich cultural mix of sounds and languages which breathes life and vibrancy into the city of Toronto. Please have a listen to these original musical anecdotes which combine the day-to-day experience of the city with the sounds and rhythms of my beloved Japanese shamisen and taiko.

てんてんの二枚目アルバム「てんてん小話」は、カナダのトロントという土地で生まれた無国籍で雑多な音と言語がごちゃごちゃにつまっています。わたしの愛する三味線や太鼓といった日本の音色と調子にあわせて、つれづれなる日常の小話をこっそりお聞かせいたします。

ten ten is an evolving art experiment with its roots in the Japanese folk tradition.

In the Japanese alphabet, “ten ten” refers to two dots used to change the sound of a syllable. In the same spirit, ten ten strives to create its own unique voice for Japanese folk music breathing new life into this traditional art form
