About this product
Masako Ohta retreats into the silence of the Waldhaus Grandsberg in the Bavarian Forest to dedicate herself to Japanese masterpieces in deep concentration and solitude. The Munich-based pianist takes us on a musical journey through time and invites us to experience extraordinary compositions from four centuries from the land of the rising sun. Thanks to Japan's temporary isolation and special island position, cultural characteristics are preserved that are still present in contemporary music. Sound creations of great Japanese composers such as Kengyo Yatsuhashi from the 17th century, Kengyo Yoshizawa from the 19th century, Toru Takemitsu from the 20th century as well as Toshio Hosokawa and Fumio Yasuda from the present are telling us about springtime at the sea, the rain tree, the singing of birds and dances of distant islands. Album Tracks 1. Melodia II 2. Rokudan No Shirabe 3. Rain Tree Sketch 4. Rain Tree Sketch II 5. Haru No Umi 6. Chidori No Kyoku 7. Kagome - Variation 8. Hibusi 9. Toushin Do-I / Tinsagu Nu Hana 10.
