While Takemitsu's musical language is closer to French music, like Messiaen and Debussy, than to traditional Japanese music, the mercurial and mysterious soundscape he paints is of a microcosm of its own - rather like Scriabin's late Sonatas or Poems, Takemitsu's piano works are unclassifiable and as unfathomable as Nature itself.
