This piece is linked with the old tradition of autumn pieces, in whose core stands mono no aware, the deeply moving feelings which the things of nature trigger in human beings. The lively central passage is like a recollection of the summer, flooded with light, and transforms seamlessly into the lonely yet transparent autumn mood. The occasional suggestions of a French impressionist sound world reflect on the one hand a widespread tendency of Japanese postwar composition; on the other hand, the transverse flute, an instrument highly regarded by the French impressionists, may also have a bridging function. This piece was composed for Makihara Kumiko and Pamela Rowe (first performed July 1994 at Union Church Tokyo).
