Abstract
Ninety years ago Japanese music was essentially monophonic, confined to a limited number of traditional instruments, and completely Oriental in technique and sound. Today, Western harmony and counterpoint are intrinsic elements in much of Japanese music. Highly competent symphony orchestras in Japan perform skillfully orchestrated Japanese scores. Year by year the musical world of Japan becomes more Western.
