Japanese Song for Seiji Kojima – for guitar

Description

This “song” for classical guitar is based on an original melody using a minor pentatonic scale, in quasi-Japanese style, with many effective classical guitar techniques and variations.

I wrote this “song” for a friend at Oxford University by the name of Seiji Kojima, back in 1975. The notes of the melody reflect the sound of his name. I have since discovered that he is now the Japanese ambassador to Pakistan – how things move on!
