Some words on this issue: TAKEMITSU TORU: “Works of Takemitsu Toru” (Victor – SJV-1503~6 - 4 LP box set) This is without a doubt the most killer Takemitsu item, music wise as well as object wise. Housed in an ultra heavy cloth textured box, the 4 LP’s are all housed in individually colored jackets plus it all comes with a 50 (!) paged detailed booklet complete with pictures, drawings and recording info. Released in 1966 and without a single doubt the rarest of all Takemitsu recordings. Music wise it contains his best work. Contents: Disc 1 – Requiem For Strings, The Horizon Dorian 8 (harmonic pitches with 9 echoes), Coral Island for soprano and orchestra. Disc 2 – Piano Distance, Pause Uninterrupted, Le Son Calligraphie No 1, Le Son Calligraphie No 3, Eclipse. Disc 3 – Water Music For Magnetic Tape, Vocalism A1, Kwaidan. Disc 4 – ARC For Piano and Orchestra part 1 and part 2. Just a killer set, even containing (Disc 3) some of Takemitsu’s rarely seen completely electronic scores. Fantastic music and quite hard to dig up.
