Available by direct order for $12 + any applicable shipping/tax (write: joe@joelasqo.com), as well as at shows, at Viracocha, Bird & Beckett, at other retail, & the usual e-commerce outlets.
Long-awaited CD of Indo-modernist and Neo-Gaku piano solo repertoire pioneered at San Francisco’s legendary Viracocha: Ancient musics from Japan and India in 21st-century modernist piano interpretations.
Available on Edgetone Records. From their description: “Pianist Joe Lasqo plays elegantly startling ragas, played in a style as if Debussy had lived in Mumbai, and ancient Japanese shakuhachi and gagaku “standards” refracted through the serialist prisms of Messiaen, early Stockhausen, and Paul Bley.”
We have crafted a beautiful physical object and encourage you to enjoy it in physical form.
