Kitaro's exotic blend of Japanese styles and romantic melodies in the western tradition was a phenomenon all over the world and led to further acclaimed albums, remaining an indelible artistic trademark over the decades. 'This music is not from my mind,' he said. 'It is from heaven, going through my body and out my fingers through composing. Sometimes I wonder. I never practice. I don't read or write music, but my fingers move. I wonder, 'Whose song is this?'' This approach to music boasts a spiritual intensity that has helped earn Kitaro a Golden Globe, numerous Grammy Award nominations for his works - and eventually the coveted Grammy Award later on in his career. This 10 CD SET shows an overview of his music, starting with the famous soundtracks from Sllkroad to his actual works Ku-Kai.
