Milford Graves & Toshi Tsuchitori live in concert at Tokyo Ginza Saison Theater, 1993.

[wiki] Milford Graves (b. Queens, New York August 20, 1941) is an American jazz drummer and percussionist, most noteworthy for his early avant-garde contributions in the early 1960s with Paul Bley and the New York Art Quartet. He is considered to be a free jazz pioneer, liberating the percussion from its timekeeping role.
Graves has worked as a sideman and session musician with a variety of established jazz musicians throughout his career, including Don Pullen, Eddie Gomez, Andrew Cyrille, Rashied Ali, Kenny Clarke, Don Moye, Philly Joe Jones, John Zorn and Albert Ayler. He has invested his time in research within the field of healing through music.

Toshi Tsuchitori (土取利行) was born in Kagawa, Japan in 1950. He was an avant-garde / free jazz percussionist in the 1970s, but more recently he is working with ancient Japanese music. From the 1980s to 2002, he recorded four works that explore ancient Japanese instruments: “Dōtaku: Ancient Japanese Bronze Bells from Yayoi Period (b.c. 400 - a.d. 250)”, “Sanukaito: Stone Sounds of the Paleolithic Era in Japan”, “Jōmonko: Pottery Drums of Jōmon Period (b.c. 3000 - b.c. 2500)” and “The Sounds of Prehistoric Painted Cave: Playing in the Cave of Cougnac, France”. In 1988, he created the Ryuko Gakusha Art Center with Harue Momoyama. He has worked with Milford Graves, Derek Bailey, Steve Lacy, and theater director Peter Brook. He continues his extensive research on Asian and African music and dance to this day.
