About this product
Many Japanese composers have shown particular affinity for the guitar, none more so than Toru Takemitsu. In Toward the Sea Takemitsu expands his unique sensibility and imaginative flair for the instrument's colors and expressiveness to embrace the warmly elliptical sound of the alto flute. Ichiro Nodaira's Wave Recollections evokes the earthquake and tsunami of 2011 in it's exploration of the guitar's acoustic properties- the quality of mankind's relationship with nature runs as a theme through many of the evocative Japanese song arrangements in this programme. InchThis is not music you'll be able to hear often- and it's unlikely that you'll hear it played more beautifully.Inch (American Record Guide on Volume 3)

The second volume in this series reveals once again the amazing flair that Japanese composers have for the guitar. It also explores the ways in which the more traditional aspects of the country's music are brought into the sphere of the classical guitar with variety, subtlety and richness. From Toru Takemitsu's popular arrangement of Nakada's A Song of Early Spring through Akira Miyoshi's lyrical Cinq Poemes pour la guitare to Toshio Hosokawa's evocative Serenade the listener encourters unexpected colors and textures as well as evocations of the biwa and shamisen (types of lute) and the koto, a long zither.
