Noriko Kurihara
Kiseki No Kiseki

"Kiseki No Kiseki" is a Japanese folk song cycle, composed by Noriko Kurihara in 1980. It consists of six movements, performed by a cast of hundreds, performed by a range of instruments – claves, cellos, wind chimes, shakers, etc – and screen-printed on paper lantern envelopes. The sounds were made possible by a hand-drawn map of a territory occupied by Japan in the Pacific in the second world war, which Noriko kept in a scrap of her childhood. Her haunting vocals exploit this memory for a late-night cigarette breakbeat.
