A piece that questions the presence of Japan in 20th-century music history!
This is the journey of Naxos’s hidden masterpiece discovery, finally reaching Japan. While possessing the quality to appeal worldwide, Japanese orchestral works that could not be fully showcased are introduced overseas with a sense of mission akin to a “reverse Black Ship.” They are elevated through orchestration filled with ideas that embody the energy of the people, the elegance of the court, meticulous aesthetics, and the emotional and nostalgic weaving of sentiment. The first in the series, themed around Japanese nationalism, re-examines Japan’s presence within 20th-century music history.
◆ Selected as No. 1 by readers in the Modern Music section of the February 2002 issue of "Record Geijutsu" magazine, Readers’ Choice (Outstanding Disc of 2001)! Also ranked 8th overall!
◆ Awarded the Japanese Performer Division at HMV Classical Awards 2001!
