Premiered by Naomi Yamashita (mandolin) and
Akira Yamashita (mandoloncello) on December 16, 2012 at KJ Hall in
Hamamatsu-city, Japan.
Beginning with mysterious sounds based on the tune from “Sakura (Cherry blossoms)” , the most popular Japanese traditional song depicting spring scenery, LANDSCAPES OF THE FOUR SEASONS consists of Japanese folk songs related to each season: “Cha-tsumi” (Song for tea-picking season) to summer, “Sato no Aki” (Autumn in the countryside) to autumn, and “Yuki” (The snowy day) to winter. In addition to the songs above, some musical fragments from well-known pieces such as “Mushi no Koe” (Chirping of insects) , “Haru ga kita” (Spring has come), and even “Clair de Lune” by Debussy are used to produce a sense of fun. I hope you can enjoy a sense of each season while playing the piece.
