Masato Honda, who continues to lead the fusion world with superb technique and a powerful, dazzling performance, returns to Billboard Live again this year. Along with a rock-solid lineup—Kazuma Sotozono (Guitar), Keiji Matsumoto (Key), Ryū Kawamura (Bass), and Hiroyuki Noritake (Drums)—he delivers a high-octane, driving performance. With an inexhaustible edge and an expressiveness that has grown even more mature, the "Hyper Sax Player," who still receives love calls from numerous artists, delivers a stunning stage and a moment of bliss.
