Spending most of her life abroad, she told me that Japanese composers and their works were not so familiar to her, but that she was very drawn to my father s music. My father's vintage works have been revived in this new era by a talented artist: Miki Aoki. These piano works are absolute gems in every sense. I hope you enjoy the music of my father, Takanobu Saito, works which transcend into this new era. The beginning of the story of this album goes back to 2015. I was sorting through my father's belongings when I came across an old cassette tape. The label on it said Ozu Yasujiro memorial piano album composed and played by Takanobu Saito . I had no idea what this could be, and since I did not own a cassette tape player I could not listen to it. But the curiosity stayed in my head and I could not stop thinking about what might be on this cassette tape. I finally went out and purchased a new cassette tape player. On this tape was my own father playing the music from Yasujiro Ozu s films. There were main themes and polkas from the films Tokyo Story , Early Spring , Tokyo Twilight , Equinox Flower , Floating Weeds , Late Autumn and An Autumn Afternoon for all of which my father composed the music. -Tamio Saito, son of Takanobu Saito Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE
