A String Around Autumn

Album by Tōru Takemitsu & Philip Dukes & Sharon Bezaly & Noriko Ogawa & BBC National Orchestra of Wales & Tadaaki Otaka

A String Around Autumn is a 1989 composition by Japanese composer Tōru Takemitsu. Scored for solo violin and orchestra, the work emphasises timbre, delicate harmonic textures and silence, and sits in Takemitsu's late-period output that explores the interplay between Western orchestral practice and Japanese aesthetic principles.
