  • 18 HANZ ARAKI Grainne Mccool Talks to Hanz Araki Whose Roots Are
    Irish Music - November 29/09/2014 14:48 Page 18 18 HANZ ARAKI FOREIGN SHORE Grainne McCool talks to Hanz Araki whose roots are deep in two traditions. the wall–of–sound approach. This time around, I challenged myself to leave my own playing and voice very exposed.It's very difficult to be completely happy with the sound of my own voice, and even more difficult to not be hyper-critical of my playing. All that being said, this was a very enjoyable project from start to finish.” The title of this new album is apt considering Hanz Araki’s clear love of Irish and other shores and yet he is presently based in Western America. Hanz agrees and says, “The title is of course a fragment of a lyric from several of my favourite songs, one of which is on the album (Valentine O'Hara); I thought that Foreign Shore was a very appropriate title, given not only the selection of music, but my own place in this world.” On my first listening of Foreign Shore I was intrigued with its attention to detail and the inspiration each track exudes. Araki only served to confirm my findings: “My approach to music is to avoid forcing anything. It's very difficult for me to let go of a performance and let it just be. My instinct is to do a thousand takes, but often I find that leads to a somewhat sterile performance. The trick has been finding the balance between something that captures a moment and a feeling, but also would pass muster with my father, who was very precise and as close to perfect as a person could get (as a musician).” This preciseness and attention to detail has certainly passed on to Hanz! Hanz’s father is shakuhachi grandmaster Tatsuya Kodo Araki, the fifth generation to inherit the name Kodo, one of the most important names in the world of traditional Japanese music.
