Debussy, pointing to music of the future, looked to the Orient for inspiration. Hosokawa has combined aspects of Japanese and European tradition in his contemporary compositions. Momo Kodama: 'In the music of Toshio Hosokawa I find elements close to Debussy: the freedom of form and tone colour, the sense of poetic design, with a wide range of lyricism and dynamics, between meditation and virtuoso development, between light and shade, between large gestures and minimalist refinement.'\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003ePoint and Line is the pianist's second ECM album and follows the widely-praised La vall\\xe9e des cloches, with music of Ravel, Takemitsu and Messiaen, of which American Record Guide noted. 'Kodama's impeccable technique and facility for crystalline sounds makes for a mesmerizing program.'\u003cp\u003eDebussy: Etudes - Pour les Arp\\xe8ges compos\\xe9s (No.11)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHosokawa: Etude I-VI - Point and Line (No.2)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDebussy: Etudes - Pour les Quartes (No.3)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHosokawa: Etude I-VI - Calligraphy, Haiku, 1 Line (No.3)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDebussy: Etudes - Pour les Sixtes (No.4)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHosokawa: Etude I-VI - 2 Lines (No.1)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDebussy: Etudes - Pour les Sonorit\\xe9s oppos\\xe9es (No.10)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDebussy: Etudes - Pour les Tierces (No.2)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDebussy: Etudes - Pour les huit doigts (No.6)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHosokawa: Etude I-VI - Lied, Melody (No.6)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDebussy: Etudes - Pour les cinq doigts d'apr\\xe8s Monsieur Czerny (No.1)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDebussy: Etudes - Pour les Accords (No.12)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDebussy: Etudes - Pour les Agr\\xe9ments (No.8)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHosokawa: Etude I-VI - Ayatori, Magic by 2 hands, 3 Lines (No.4)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDebussy: Etudes - Pour les Degr\\xe9s chromatiques (No.7)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHosokawa: Etude I-VI - Anger (No.5)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDebussy: Etudes - Pour les Notes r\\xe9p\\xe9t\\xe9es (No.9)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDebussy: Etudes - Pour les Octaves (No.5)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55167114084737,"sku":"636762","price":17.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/41cLPDSKQQL._SL1500.jpg?v=1768048454","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/636762","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
