After finishing the recording of "The Day I Won't Fly," Takeo Toyama left Osaka, where he had lived for many years, and moved his base to Onomichi, where he has been traveling to various places for his own solo performances, PATO LOL MAN, an 8-beat eclectic unit; "Machinobunkasai," an event celebrating its 10th anniversary this year in Okayama, as the leader of a citizens' orchestra called Uchiyamashita Haikou Band; performances with translator Motoyuki Shibata and writer Hideo Furukawa; and stage productions of "The Cat that Lived a Million Times," "I am Shingo," "The Tempest," "The Dream Play," "The Dream Play," "The Dream Play," and "The Dream Play," as well as a number of other works. Dream Play," and also toured with his longtime friend Ego Lappin. In the midst of such a busy schedule, he completed this album, "Shiken wa Mori toto (Around the Forest as a Forest)". The album is a collection of 12 new songs that are unashamedly "matured. The 2010 release, "Waltz in March," was recorded by Hauschka as a result of their exchange during his stay in Japan. Although "post-classical" and "Quiet Corner" were not keywords at the time, the album has been a long seller, and now his charm as a performer who can entertain audiences with a performance of nearly two hours by himself has been further refined.We hope you will enjoy the simple and clear strokes that are free from hand-waving and technicalities.
