This album, titled "Rain Tree: The Complete Solo Piano Music of Tōru Takemitsu," features the complete solo piano works of the renowned Japanese composer Tōru Takemitsu, performed by pianist Noriko Ogawa. The collection showcases Takemitsu's evolving compositional style, marked by influences from Japanese traditions and Western composers such as Messiaen and Debussy. The music reflects Takemitsu's unique harmonic language, timbral sensitivity, and the concept of 'ma' — the Japanese idea of space and silence. Highlights include "Litany," "For Away," and "Rain Tree Sketches," offering a profound exploration of sound and silence.
