Hide details for Programme notes:Programme notes:
Departing Water for flute and piano is dedicated to the Japanese composer Toru Takemitsu. It was written in 1996, shortly after Takemitsu's death. The title refers to Takemitsu's departure from this world and to his love for titles which included the word “water“. The music itself is also in some ways indebted to Takemitsu, mainly through the choice of instruments.
Jesper Nordin
