	Bamboo-Na	Shakuhachi : Mitsuhashi Kifu Shakuhachi : Mizukawa Toshiya
This piece creates a tension with a simple melody line which modulates every four bars and has a unique rhythm called merengue. Toshiya Mizukawa was required to produce sounds which normally cannot be made with a shakuhachi and had a very difficult time doing so. This was the first song defining a new sound for Bamboo-na. We still had no title for this piece the day before we were due to play it live at a concert, so our manager told me to decide on one. I thought, "Well, I'll have it done in time for tomorrow." Then I realized this phrase in Japanese (ashita maniauna) sounded almost identical to the Spanish for "See you tomorrow" (hasta manana), hence the title.
