Known internationally as the “Musical Wakonyosai” — the Bicultural Music Samurai — Kurosawa has developed a singular approach to the guitar that defies easy categorization. His “Lovetap” technique fuses percussive fingerpicking, flamenco, and electric guitar effects into a live experience that draws from world music, jazz, folk, rock, and classical traditions simultaneously. Audiences and critics alike have struggled to contain him in a single genre.
Advance tickets for the concert are $20, with a $5 discount for students and seniors and $10 for children under 12. Tickets may be purchased online or at the box office. Tickets will be $5 more at the door on the evening of the performance.
The performance is presented as part of The Platform, a live performance series curated by the nonprofit Chalfonte Foundation, which brings nationally and internationally recognized artists to Elk Rapids in an intimate setting.
