This collection explores what modern music sounds like in the age of global awareness, using examples from traditional Japanese music and new works based on the Japanese musical tradition. The koto is a Japanese zither and both this instrument and the recorder were used in the folk and art music of their respective cultures. Many of the pieces were commissioned for these artists by composers such as Koch-Raphael and Hosokawa.
