Timeline

1945

Akira Sakata (born 21 February 1945) is a Japanese free jazz saxophonist.

Sakata was born in Hiroshima on 21 February 1945.

He first heard jazz on short-wave radio and Voice of America, then became more interested in it from listening to film soundtracks.

He began studying music seriously at high school, where he played clarinet.

He played alto sax in a jazz band when at Hiroshima University.

1969

He trained as a marine biologist and moved to Tokyo in 1969.

1972

Sakata was with the Yamashita Yosuke Trio from 1972 to 1979 and toured internationally with them.

1986

In 1986, he performed with Last Exit with Bill Laswell.

This performance was released as The Noise of Trouble: Live in Tokyo.

Laswell went on to play bass on and produce Sakata albums such as Mooko, Silent Plankton and Fisherman's.com, the last of which also featured the reclusive Pete Cosey (who had worked with Miles Davis) on guitar.

He later worked with DJ Krush and Chikamorachi (Darin Gray and Chris Corsano).

2002

Sakata's career nearly ended in 2002, when he had a brain haemorrhage.

He had to relearn the saxophone and returned to performing after three months, but still had some remaining restrictions years later.

He is also a television and film actor, as well as being a writer.

"He has created a language of his own which sounds very funny to Japanese listeners and which he uses extensively in his publications and in his appearances as an actor".

"His deep commitment to the music is always evident in his playing, as is his humor. In concert, he will occasionally put down his saxophone and simply make vocal sounds into the microphone, the effect of which is often both humorous and musical."
