Play ButtonVoices Phantasma - Flame 箏 : 吉村 七重
Koto, a 2000 year-old Japanese instrument, was originally intended to express a prayer to the gods. Ms. Yoshimura is one of the few koto players today who is capable of vivifying this divinely ancient instrument.

The composition TOIN (TO means strong wave and IN is sound in Japanese) 'let the wave..." consists of two psychological elements- one the large mindedness perceived from the koto's history and two the fresh energy created by the living performer. These elements signify the volumes of wave which together conceive a larger undulation as in the swell of the sea. The work was commissioned by Ms. Yoshimura and was premiered in Tokyo in 1992.
