  3. Hi!

    I would like to know if "Flowers sing in the large field" is an original
    Tomita
    composition? It's kinda familiar, in a strange way.

    Cheers,

    Tomi

  4. Good Q.

    I would also like to know:

    What are:
    Back to the Earth
    Electric Samurai
    One Night of the Milkyway Railroad
    Scheherazade
    The Lark Ascending
    Water Land
    Whose Is This Blue Earth
    and Yokohama?

    Are the Improvisations from Sound Creature?

    I greatly appreciate all these files being uploaded, they are very
    interesting listening. And they, in turn, led me to click the Visualisations
    button on Real Player and discover Annabelle the Sheep, who has given me and
    my girlfriend hours of inane amusement. =)

    Cheers,

    the massive 1986 concert in NYC, there used to be a common CD with the
    slightly edited performance

    > Electric Samurai
    the British renaming of "Switched on Hit & Rock" (1972)

    > One Night of the Milkyway Railroad

    Original suite from "Sound Creature"

    This may refer to a popular children's book thats been turned into an
    anime (with a Haruomi Hosono score) and inspired a Joe Hisaishi album.

    > Scheherazade
    thats a good one. Well the piece is Rimisky Korsakov's very well known
    orchestral suite. I think this is a movement though it strangely sounds
    a lot like something from Grand Canyon Suite. He even says "Grand
    Canyon" in his interview. So maybe John should double check. Maybe I'm
    wrong, I should dust off the orchestral version. Anyway at the end is an
    excerpt of "Rite of Spring" (by Stravinsky)

    Tomita was supposedly working on an album of presumably the complete
    multimovement piece (which fits well on an LP). Its a very colorful
    piece though from what I can hear through the poor quality audio, there
    isn't quite the lushness I'd expect.

    He was definitely slated to release "Rite of Spring" but it was
    apparently not completed as far as I know except for the openning heard
    here and in better fidelity on the album "Live at Linz". The 2 live
    events seem to have served double duty in (unfortunately for us)
    completing what I presume was a multi-album deal with RCA (USA)

    > The Lark Ascending
    This is a Ralph Vaughn-Williams piece. It can be heard on the Linz album
    also.


    > Water Land
    > Whose Is This Blue Earth

    don't know- maybe TV work

    > and Yokohama?
    this was one of his mega SoundCloud concert events (like Sydney, NYC,
    Linz, etc.)
