Longtime collaborators Hub New Music and Silkroad Ensemble shakuhachi player (and composer) Kojiro Umezaki release a distance, intertwined on June 7 on In a Circle Records. The album is a culmination of a project begun in 2018 when Hub, Umezaki, and composers of the Asia-America New Music Institute premiered works at the Peabody Essex Museum (Salem, MA). The goal of the project was, and is, to bridge cultural divides. The musicians toured Japan in June 2018, and have performed regularly since.
