Music for Japan is a terrific and rousing composition for orchestra by Peter Sculthorpe written in 1970. The slow yet significant meandering timbre and accent work towards to a middle section for amplified percussion strongly rhythmic and develops into an exciting and inspiring character. Then beautiful swirling effects add to the final chordal structure with its exultant layers of orchestral sound. This is the complete score for Full Orchestra.

Par LOEB DAVID. David Loeb presents the collection Japanese Landscapes and Legends for piccolo alone, an aggregation of previously stand-alone works - the Four Japanese Legends (P-12), Scenes from the Japanese Countryside (P-14), and the Preludes Vol. III (P-31). These works are almost entirely direct suggestions of stories and geographic locations from across Japan, though they also reach into the deep past of Chinese origins and the dispersal of musical ideas and oral tradition through Japan and Korea. The opening Four Legends are stories narrated by piccolo, the Eight Views and stand-alone vignettes are tone paintings of landscapes and moment of time - snowfall, bird migration, rain falling onrivers, and others.

Commissioned by the Japan Band Clinic Committee of Yamaha for the Nemu Band Directors Clinic in Nemu no Sato May 18-20 1997.The surprising title of this work is an indication of its content. By combining the somewhat similar names ‘Nemu no Sato’ and ‘Susato’ into a new word Jan Van der Roost has produced a significant and interesting subject. The Yamaha corporation has extensive facilities in Nemu no Sato Japan including a concert hall recording studios hotel and so on. Concerts workshops clinics and other events are held here including the annual Nemu Band Directors Clinic which consists of numerous musical events. Jan Van der Roost served as guest conductor andspeaker in 1994. He was invited again for the 1997 clinic this time with a composition assignment. The difficulty level of his new piece was to be Grade 2 - 3 bands. With this in mind Mr. Van der Roost strove to create a renaissance-like sound. Simultaneously he wished to create a tribute to Tielman Susato who like Jan Van der Roost lived and worked in Antwerp in the 16th century. The first performance of Nemu-Susato was conducted by the composer performed by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Band and took place during the Nemu Band Directors Clinic on May 19 1997.
