Beauty of Form and Simplicity / Yosuke Ikeda

His performance starts in quiet heart break.

"poco a poco crescendo"
Grief gradually disappears in a rhythmic pace.
Children are fascinated with the rhythm and starts to laugh.
"accelerando"
Pantomime and hut juggling set the mood for his masterpiece "Hello, Goodbye".

Lyrics dance in his hands as if they are living.
What a delightful moment!
"ritardando" and "diminuendo"
His performance ends in quiet hope.

All of his act is sophisticated and fit in soothing music.
We can find beauty of form like Noh and beauty of simplicity like tea ceremony from his performance.
