Abstract:
In 1972 the Japanese composer, Makoto Shinohara wrote "Tayutai" (Fluctuationsà for koto, percussion instruments and voice. This text contains a detailed analysis based on the hypothesis that three approaches have been neatly synthesized in the work: the application of traditional Japanese techniques, the influence of Darmstadt-like serial developments as well as a purely experimental approach.
