Instrument: Orchestra
Publisher: Faber Music
Description:
"Music for Japan begins with a great sobbing breath of sound, rather like the deep chesty vocalism of Japanese classical singer-actors. Slow planetary wanderings of timbre and accent give way to a middle section for amplified percussion, strongly rhythmic and excitingly developed. There is one beautiful effect (repeated) when a swirling mass of sound comes out into a cloudless major chord on E; and the final chordal structure is a marvellously exultant terracing of orchestral sound." Roger Covell, The Sydney Morning Herald, 3 January 1971
