Monumental of Five Beats

The 7th album by violinist TSUMUZI, who is praised both in Japan and abroad as the "Prince of 5/4" and the "Prince of Irregular Time", contains 8 songs, including original songs such as "For the Wine of Sunrise", the image song for the nationally designated Important Cultural Property 'Ushiku Chateau', and "Laberinto en 5 y 4 (Labyrinth of 5 and 4)", which fuses 5/4 and 4/4 with advanced rhythmic theory and was well received in Spain, as well as innovative 5/4 covers of well-known classics such as "Part-Time Lover", "Under the Sky of Paris", "Coffee Rumba", and "Sakura Sakura".
This is a satisfying work that is a culmination of the rhythm theory research that has been accumulated so far, and also suggests the possibility of further development. Without losing sight of his own musical individuality of 5 beats and irregular time signature, this album has succeeded in further expanding the TSUMUZI world, which travels freely through the foreign landscapes of Europe, America, Persia, and South America, and is a truly 'monumental' album that invites listeners into a fascinating musical experience.
