We are pleased to announce the start of a new project dedicated to expanding the perspectives and interpretations of Sacrifice through collaborations with diverse artists.In its early exploratory phase, we recently completed an intensive recording session with trumpeter Yoichiro Kita (Shibusa Shirazu Orchestra), pushing our physical limits. We appreciate your continued interest in its forthcoming development. 様々なアーティストとのコラボレーションを通じて Sacrifice の視点や解釈を広げていく新たなプロジェクトが始まりました。探求の第一歩として、トランペット奏者の北陽一郎さん（渋さ知らズオーケストラ）との録音セッションを行いました。今後の展開に是非ご期待ください。

Sacrifice has been featured on Manuel Göttsching's official website . We are truly at a loss for words for this honor. We pray that Manuel is smiling from heaven. May he rest in peace.

Paintings by Anja Spindler The music "Sacrifice" was created as a dedication to the guitarist and musician Manuel Göttsching, with whom the composer, Mami Konishi , shared a musical connection. The approach taken in constructing this composition reflects profound respect for him. Additionally, the painting (partially shown) created by Anja Spindler for this release serves as a tribute to Manuel and evokes memories of his iconic masterpieces. "Sacrifice”の音楽は、作曲者である小西麻美と音楽的な交流のあった、ギタリスト／音楽家であるマニュエル・ゲッチング氏への献辞として制作されました。曲を構築する手法に、その深い敬意が表されています。また、今回のために描かれたアンヤ・スピンドラーによる絵画（一部）は、マニュエルへの追憶であり、彼の歴史的な代表作を彷彿とさせます。

Drawings by Emi Burns Following the introduction of the glass chess pieces, we now present the drawings. The title of this release is "Sacrifice," inspired by a historic chess game. At the same time, it carries the deeply personal emotions of its creator, Mami Konishi . The drawings by Emi Burns trace the origins of "Sacrifice," capturing what lies submerged at the riverbed, as though delicately retrieving hidden fragments. ** ガラスのチェスピースに次いで、ドローイングをご紹介します。今回のリリース作品のタイトルは"Sacrifice" －ある歴史的なチェス・ゲームから引用されていると同時に、作者である小西麻美の個人的な深い想いも込められています。バーンズ絵美によるドローイングは、"Sacrifice"が創作された起源を遡り、その川底に沈むものを掬い取るように描かれていきました。

Photo by Machiko Moriguchi The glass chess pieces by jewelry artist Machiko Moriguchi are truly captivating. This new release features music inspired by chess, along with drawings and glass artworks it inspired. Thank you for your support. Stay tuned for more details, and we hope you enjoy this harmonious blend of art forms. 写真はジュエリーアーティストの森口真千子による、美しいガラスのチェスピースです。今回のリリースは、「チェス」に基づいた音楽であり、さらにその音に発想されたドローイングとガラス作品が重要な役割を担っています。チェスを基に創造の連鎖をつないだ、様々な形態の融合にご期待ください。

**Starting in 2025, our music label "tho" will begin its journey. We will start small, moving at a walking pace. Thank you for your support, and please stay tuned for release update.**
