1	Shakuhachi Shijusokyoku Dai Ichiban	尺八四重奏曲　第一番	09'50	Сякухати: Yamamoto Hōzan Сякухати: Ikeda Seizan II Сякухати: Kitahara Kōzan II Сякухати: Yokoyama Katsuya
	This quartet was composed for three small-sized Shakuhachi, about one foot and six inches long, and one large-sized Shakuhachi, about two feet and one inch long, in concise style.
2	Ten'i	天為	06'17	Сякухати: Yamamoto Hōzan
	This Shakuhachi solo was composed in traditional "Honkyoku" style. Hozan Yamamoto told about the motif as follows : "Bamboo, grown up in barren soil, is made to Shakuhachi by high human technique. When I am impressed by naive tone of Shakuhachi, I am reminded of human power which conquered nature by natural way. I tried to express in this composition a wonderful world of human beings creating something by law of nature, as the saying is “Heaven has no mouth, and speaks through human lips."
3	Ohgi		08'54	Сякухати: Tanida Renzan Сякухати: Ikeda Seizan II Сякухати: Mamoru Yoshikatsu Сякухати: Kobatake Rinzan Сякухати: Sakai Suizan Сякухати: Ifuji Reizan Сякухати: Yamamoto Hōzan Сякухати: Imase Kozan Сякухати: Nanba Chikuzan
	Three parts are played by regular-sized Shakuhachi, about one foot and eight inches long. Two to four players are arranged in each part. This composition is colored by fascinating atmosphere.
4	In'yoku	陰陽句	12'13	Сякухати: Sakai Suizan Сякухати: Sakata Seizan Сякухати: Ikeda Seizan II Сякухати: Yamamoto Hōzan Сякухати: Sawai Sanzan
	This composition is classified into two parts, one impromptu solo part in classical "Honkyoku" style, and another duo part (including trio, quartet, and quintet) in crisp rhythm and folk· song-like melody. Various forms appear alternately, e.g. after solo part follows duo part, then follows quintet part and so forth. Major scale and minor scale are clearly contrasted in this composition.
5	Tsuido - Shakuhachi Duet 1	尺八二重奏曲「対動 (ついどう)」1	09'00	Сякухати: Miyata Kōhachirō Сякухати: Yamamoto Hōzan
	This is a functional composition with a light and happy and bright theme. It looks as if two Shakuhachi were playing about joyfully. There are three movements, the 1st high, the 2nd low, and the 3rd high tempo.
