I live in YOKOHAMA JAPAN (Next FIFA world cup football game's final will be done in the near place of my town). I began playing acoustic bass in my studenthood, about 20 years ago. But I'm not a fulltime professional. I mostly play a modern jazz music like C.Corea, T.Monk or popular jazz songs, and participate JAZZ GIGS. Dave Holland is the best favorite of bassists. Also other bassists have many attractive aspects for me. Recently my main interest is contemporary piano trio music like ANTONIO FARAO Italy.
