요시마츠 타카시
독주 피아노를 위한 플레이아데스 춤곡들.[1]
1. 개요
일본의 현대음악 작곡가. 다케미쓰 도루와 함께 유명하다. 도쿄도 시부야구에서 태어났으며 1974년 게이오기주쿠대학을 중퇴하고 키보드 연주자로서 아마추어 밴드에 가입한다. 이로 인해 재즈, 전자음악에 관심을 갖게 된다.
14살에 베토벤, 차이콥스키의 교향곡에 매료된 그는 1980년대 쯤에 재즈, 록, 일본 전통음악의 강한 영향과 함께 자유롭고 신낭만주의적인 곡을 작곡하게 되고, 그 시기 기타 협주곡을 작곡하게 된다.
현재 6개의 교향곡, 12개의 협주곡 등의 작품이 있으며, 타이라노 키요모리의 사운드트랙을 작곡하고[2] '아스트로 보이, 철완 아톰' 의 음악을 작곡한 바 있다.[3]
2. 작품 성향
아름다운 음악을 많이 쓰고 특유의 색채가 보이며, 주로 새, 별자리 등의 자연 상징물이나 일본의 전통 상징물로 곡을 작곡한다.
밴드의 영향인지 기타 독주의 곡들도 보이며, 일본 전통악기를 위한 곡도 여럿 있다.
신낭만주의를 추구한다.
