From July 12 to July 18 SuperDeluxe becomes the center-piece of the Dada 100 anniversary in Japan. Art enthusiasts, the curious, and the thirsty can experience a unique space, recreating the atmosphere of the Cabaret Voltaire – birthplace of Dadaism in 1916 Zurich. Every evening, the Cabaret Voltaire at SuperDeluxe will present a variety of groundbreaking performances featuring dance, music, poetry and more.


Artist Information:

Michiyo YAGI
Michiyo Yagi studied the traditional Japanese transverse harp known as the koto under the late Tadao Sawai and Kazue Sawai, and graduated from the NHK Professional Training School for Traditional Musicians. During her subsequent tenure as Visiting Professor of Music at Wesleyan University in Connecticut, U.S.A. she premiered numerous modern compositions for koto and came under the influence of maverick American composers such as John Cage, Christian Wolff, Conlon Nancarrow, and John Zorn. Yagi’s debut CD Shizuku was produced by Zorn and released on his Tzadik label in 1999. In 2001 she recorded Yural (BAJ/ewe) with her multi-koto ensemble Paulownia Crush – this group toured Russia under the auspices of the Japan Foundation in 2004. In 2005 Yagi released Seventeen (Zipangu), entirely performed on the giant 17-string bass koto. Live! at SuperDeluxe (Idiolect), a trio performance with Norwegians Ingebrigt Håker Flaten (contrabass) and Paal Nilssen-Love (drums), followed a year later. In 2008 Rikskonsertene, the national concert institute of Norway, sponsored a two-week tour by Yagi, Nilssen-Love, and German saxophonist Peter Brötzmann, a trio that has performed internationally since 2006 and released Head On (Idiolect, 2008) and Volda (Idiolect, 2010). Reflexions (Idiolect/Bomba), an album of duets with the experimental New York guitarist Elliott Sharp, was released in 2010. Yagi’s most recent CD releases are Ichi No Maki [Vol. 1] (2014), credited to Dōjō, her “power duo” with Japanese jazz drummer Tamaya Honda and featuring guests Nils Peter Molvær (trumpet) and Paal Nilssen-Love; Soul Stream (2015), a quartet session with Joe McPhee (pocket trumpet, saxophones), Lasse Marhaug (electronics) and Nilssen-Love; and Angular Mass (2015), a trio with Marhaug and Nilssen-Love. An album of ambient music co-produced by the Norwegian guitarist Eivind Aarset is forthcoming, and a CD of original compositions featuring Yagi’s vocals as well as a classical-contemporary recording of written and commissioned music are also in development. An eclectic performer who continually challenges conventions, Yagi has played at the Moers, Kongsberg Jazz, Punkt, Újbuda Jazz, Musique Actuel Victoriaville, Archipel, Bang on a Can, Tokyo Summer, Vision, Instal, Jazztopad, Sengawa Jazz, Fuji Rock, and Music Unlimited festivals. In addition to leading the Michiyo Yagi Double Trio and the Michiyo Yagi Trio and performing solo concerts – all with an emphasis on her original compositions, extended techniques, and unique vocals based on the traditional jiuta style – she continues to be active as the leading improviser on her chosen instrument.
