So I just got back from this outstanding Japanese Koto Concert and fell in love with one song in particular. The title is "Yukige Shizuku", which translates to "Drops of Melting Snow in Harmony". It was composed by Edo Shingo in 2000. The thing is, I can't find a recording of this ANYWHERE. So naturally, I turn to the head-fi community to help me out. If anyone out there could tell me where I can find/buy a recording of this piece, or more music by Edo Shingo, that would be wonderful. Thanks!

Man I hate when that happens.. good luck. Nobody at the concert had any tips/advice as where to find it ? :/ I, and I'm sure many others, have had a similar experience where I heard this Japanese cover of "Come to my House," that a DJ was spinning before a concert that I just know I will never ever, ever find. :/

Are you sure that you have spelt the name right, there are no double vowels?

My japanese isn't very good, but i think i have the right spelling in kanji and hiragana, but i'm coming up with nothing --

If you haven't already, try cutting and pasting these into http://www.google.co.jp/ or another japanese search engine etc.

江戸 新 -- Edo Shigo , the kanji for shingo (新) may be written differently?

えど しんご -- Edo Shingo , hiragana

雪解雫 -- Yukige Shizuku , as far as i know this is the right kanji (snowmelt droplets)

ゆきげしずく -- Yukige Shizuku , hiragana

The hiragana may be completely useless, but someone who can read japanese may be able to find the right kanji.
