Overview

(Woodwind Ensemble). I have composed Knots Musubi in celebration of the 80th birthday of Heinz Holliger for whom I have the greatest respect. The title was inspired by the Yin and Yang principle, the central concept of the creation of the universe in the East. Polar opposite elements such as man and woman, high and low, light and shadow coexist and complement each other, becoming intertwined without eradicating each other, whilst gradually shaping the harmony of the universe. In this music, the oboe and the English horn, both of which have adistinctive characteristic tone, become entwined and gradually knotted together through arabesque-like appoggiaturas.
