This is the live recording of our first hotel guests, Reiko & Tori KUDO, at la Compilothèque, Brussels. The songs are mainly from the “Light” recording.
this Clair-obscur was chosen to reflect the light & shadow in this northern city.

In hommage to the tableaus created in this land.

Songs:

The Flower, She Sings
Homeless in Kobe
We May Be
Cigalle (Cicada)
Luciole (Firefly)
À partir de maintenant (Starting from Now)
Neko

The clear fragility of Mrs Kudo’s voice is juxtaposed with the jazz studies of Mr Kudo, with the help of Shiu Yueng Hui on percussion & melodica, Naoki Otani on trumpet & a member of the hotel staff sometimes correctly translating the lyrics into a local language.

45 minutes no tracks to be listened to as if one is there.
