Masahiko Satoh
Born in Tokyo in 1941. After graduating from Keio University, he studied music composition and arrangement at the Berklee College of Music in the United States. After returning to Japan, he won the Swing Journal's “Japan Jazz Award” for his first leader album, “Palladium”. Since then, he has produced numerous albums and gained high praise internationally. In 1997, he established his own production label, BAJ Records. He released the “Gigaku” series, which uses motifs from Bach, rakugo (traditional Japanese comic storytelling), children's songs, and jazz standards, which was well received. Recently, he has been involved in a variety of projects, including acting as music director for a collaboration with the virtual singer Hatsune Miku. From 1981 to 2020, he was the main lecturer in music theory, composition and arrangement, and piano at the Music College Maserhaus. In 1993, he started the workshop “Randooga”, which aims to provide “improvisation that anyone can participate in regardless of genre or skill”, and has proposed a concise approach to free improvisation.

Roger Turner
Roger Turner is an improvisational drummer and percussionist who has been active since the early 1970s. He is known for redefining the language of contemporary percussion and for his genre-crossing collaborations. He has been at the core of the legendary improvised music scene, pursuing a wide range of expression from solo, duo, electro-acoustic ensemble, to fusions with dance and visual art.
He has performed with innovative artists from Europe, America and Asia, including Annette Peacock, Phil Minton, Derek Bailey, Otomo Yoshihide, Cecil Taylor, Charles Gaylke and Min Tanaka, and has expanded the possibilities of improvised music on a global scale. He has given overwhelming performances in every corner of the globe, from Sydney to Svalbard, from New York to Okinawa, and even in the oyster-famous town of Whitstable.
