This is a Modern piece .

Tsukiuma appears on the following albums:

Album	Shakuhachi	Koto	Shamisen
Bamboo-Na  (Listen)	Mitsuhashi Kifu
This is an old Japanese word taken from rakugo referring to a person who collected debts from people who, for example, had entertained courtesans or gambled. Although I composed it twenty years ago and it has been played on various instruments by different musicians, on this CD it's finally getting its place in the sun. It can be said to be representative of my compositions and of Bamboo-Na's music.
