Saigo no Matsunojo

[Machine Translation] Matsunojo Kanda is a gifted storyteller who is also known as "Japan's hardest-ticketed storyteller" and "the driving force behind Japan's first boom in kodan in 100 years. His storytelling skills and power that draw you into the fun of the story even without prior knowledge, and the charm of his passionate performances, have been well received not only by traditional fans of kodan and rakugo, but also by men and women of all ages and from all walks of life. The title of this CD, "The Last Matsunojo," is a two CD set (in paper jacket) that includes three performances of Matsunojo, which are full of his youthful and enthusiastic charm, and a commentary by Matsunojo himself as a bonus track. This is the last work for Matsunojo Kanda, who will succeed the title of "Kanda Hakusan" and become a Sho-dachi.
