Production details
A three-part Prom tracing musical cross-fertilisations between East and West, and between France and Spain. Takemitsu's Ceremonial showcases the Japanese sho (mouth organ) but the key influence on his Green was Debussy ? who had himself used oriental scales and sonorities in 'Pagodes' and La mer. The sho reappears in Hosokawa's recent Cloud and Light. Works by Bizet and Ravel complete the programme. Approx. end time: 22:25
