about orizuru :
I wanted to express my silent prayer by composing this piece that is inspired by Orizuru(an origami crane) which is the symbol of peace for Japanese people.
As the technique to compose, I created the complex rhythms by digital signal processing the sound of folding Orizuru.
These rhythms are inorganic seemingly, however, two percussionists give an emotion to the rhythms, and the piece is playing with delicate and bold expressions.
I hope to share the piece as to identify the “gesture of prayer” with the state of players being immersed into their performance.
