"For me, the flute is the instrument which can most deeply realize my musical ideal. The flute can produce a sound by means of the breath, and can be a vehicle by which the breath transmits the sound's life-power" --Toshio Hosokawa "The six flute compositions on this CD, rendered impressively and with intense devotion by Yoshie Ueno, each show a way of experiencing the music intended by Toshio Hosokawa as a profound art of expression." Performed by: Yoshie Ueno, & Mayumi Miyata, Ken'ichi Nakagawa.

"Toshio Hosokawa, Japan's pre-eminent living composer, creates his distinctive musical language from the fascinating relationship between Western avant-garde art and traditional Japanese culture. His music is strongly connected to the aesthetic and spiritual roots of the Japanese arts (such as calligraphy), as well as to those of Japanese court music (such as Gagaku). He gives musical expression to notions of beauty rooted in transience: 'We hear the individual notes and appreciate, at the same time, the process of how the notes are born and die: a sound landscape of continual 'becoming' that is animated in itself.' This album is part of Klangforum Wien's Solo five-CD series of recordings of pieces for one performer, which is the ensemble's response to the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic." Performed by: Klangforum Wien
