Tieko playing with plovers. No. 33. Composed in 1953 and given the Art Festival Prize for Encouragment. The text is a poem written by Takamura Kotaro (1883-1956), a poet-sculptor. The poem depicts ths scene in which Tieko, the poet's wife (already influenced by mental illness), sits on the sea shore, playing with plovers and hearing her name in the cries of birds "tii, tii…" This work was first performed on a koto, a low-registered 13-stringed koto (invented by Yonekawa Tosiko's father, Yonekawa Kin'o's) and by a vocalist. In this recording, the original low-registered 13-stringed koto is replaced by a zyositigen (17-stringed low-registered koto). The vocal part is not written in any specific traditional vocal style of Japan. It could be described as rather neutral. Therefore, it has been successfully performed by Western style sopranos as well by traditional Japanese singers.
