	Voices from Afar - Voices From Within	Shakuhachi : Christopher Yohmei Blasdel
This piece was written with the Northern coast of Japan in mind. It is wintertime, and the frigid wind blows outside. Family members and friends have gathered around the hearth, away from the cold, to hear a story, except there are no lyrics to this story. The soprano part consists of special onomatopoetic sounds which are sung by students when learning the traditional Japanese transverse flute; a kind of vocalized instrumental part (called shoga). Therefore, this piece is really a duet between two flutes, the bamboo shakuhachi flute and the flute of the human vocal chords.
