Shakuhachi : Tanabe Shōzan | |
This piece was commissioned in 1983 by Christopher Yohmei Blasdel, an American shakuhachi artist, and was first performed with sho (mouth organ) player, Mayumi Miyata, in the fall of that year. The work's title came about as a result of its debut performance in the glassed-in rock garden of Tokyo's Sogetsu Plaza. The Chinese characters for 'Sogetsu" are "Grass" and "Moon," both of which are associated with autumn in Japan. Thus, the concept for the work came about with the moonlight, sho, and shakuhachi brought together in the context at season and place. There is a Debussy prelude entitled "La terrasse des audiences du claire du lune." I hope to convey a similar sentiment with this piece.
