Kacho-Fugetsu” is an ensemble piece for marimba and Japanese drums, composed in 2006, inspired by the elegant and atmospheric seasons of Japan.
The piece consists of a suite in four movements, spring, summer, fall, and winter, with the theme of flowers in spring, birds in summer, wind in fall, and the moon in winter, and I chose the most memorable and beautiful scenes for me in each season. Autumn Breeze is a joyful piece set to the rhythm of an Oayashi which is traditional Japanese festival music. I composed this piece with the image of a scene where festival music can be heard from far away on a slightly chilly autumn breeze.
Instruments
Player 1: Marimba:5 octaves (C-C)
Player 2: Shime-daiko( high/ low), Miya-daiko, O-daiko, Hira-daiko
Duration: approx. : 3’25”
