At the turn of the 1970s he formed the rock supergroup “GO”, which made an incredible impact in the world by taking its lead in fusion/music going beyond the different genres of music. In the 1980’s he began pursuing Buddhism music at Toji Temple in Kyoto and established a new style of music. From his encounter with a stone instrument “sanukite” which has a wide range far more than any other instruments, he is currently the art director of “On Zen Ceremony” which is a ceremony incorporating Shinto, Zen, and world of spiritual music.
