ToshiIchiyanagi
(born 4 February 1933, Kobe, Japan) is a Japanese composer of avant-garde
music. He studied with TomojiroIkenouchi and John Cage.
One of his
most notable works is the 1960 composition, Kaiki, which combined Japanese
instruments, shō and koto, and western instruments, harmonica and saxophone.
Another work Distance (1961) requires the performers to play from a distance of
three meters from their instruments. Anima 7 (1964) states that chosen action
should be performed "as slowly as possible."
