Kitaro - The Essential Kitaro

     Release Date : November 7, 2006Catalog : 73249-2Format : CD + DVD set, Digital Download (AAC, Mp3)DVD Region : AllThe sheer breadth of Kitaro's eclecticism is on full display here, with selections from his essential soundtrack work including music from Best Of Silk Road, The Soong Sisters, the Broadway score to Cirque Ingenieux, as well as more personal creations from the  Sacred Journey of Ku-Kai series, a surprising melting pot of prog-rock guitar, haunting woodwinds, snippets of nature sounds and Buddhist monk chanting. Though his studio output is indispensable, it's the live realm where Kitaro really shines. The DVD that complements this CD compilation contains stunning footage of two very different but equally epic performances: a 1999 concert in Spain and a 2004 show in China, both demonstrating that Kitaro's music truly crosses borders to deliver a unique universal message.| T R A C K S |DISK 1 (CD) 01.
