This album, released in 1972, is by Yuji Takahashi—one of Japan’s leading contemporary composers, who studied under Iannis Xenakis and has been active at the forefront of the music scene since the early 1970s. The recordings are taken from the concert “Yuji Takahashi Recital,” held in June 1971 at Shibuya Kokaido in Tokyo as the first installment of the Persona Series. The album features three pieces—each distinct in style—spanning both classical and contemporary music: Beethoven’s Sonata No. 31 in A-Flat, Op. 110, Messiaen’s Canteyojaya, and Stravinsky’s Serenade en la.
