Akira Miyazawa (AKIRA MIYAZAWA) / Iwana (LP)

Tenor saxophonist Akira Miyazawa is one of the musicians who built the foundation of Japan's jazz scene. Miyazawa said, ``Since we are Japanese, I think we have to create people that only Japanese people can do.'' From 1969 to 1970, Miyazawa produced films such as ``Four Units,'' ``Iwana,'' and ``Kiso.'' He continues to release works that deeply explore the identity of the Japanese people. Among them, this work ``Iwana'', which was performed with the most cutting-edge piano trio of the time, Masahiko Sato, Yasuo Arakawa, and Masahiko Togashi, is truly the pinnacle of <Japanese jazz>, and it is a masterpiece unlike any other. creating a world of music. ``Iwana'' is full of tension, ``River Masu'' spins leisurely, ``Ayu'' is extremely beautiful, and ``Rainbow Masu'' is dynamic. All songs are masterpieces that will remain in Japanese jazz history.
