Fukushima 50: In March of 2011, a devastating tsunami hit Japan. One of the results of this catastrophe was a long term nuclear crisis in Fukushima. A small group of nuclear engineers, later given the name The Fukushima 50, gave up their lives and suffered immensely, in order to restore safety to all of Japan. This is a very meditative piece that incorporates some Japanese elements. It is my gift in honor of those heroes.
I apologize for the noisy piano hammers in this recording, hopefully a better recording will come soon.

Very "contemplative" transparent work. Would work if programmed correctly. 7/10

Very nice, like Harold Budd mixed with Satie's 'Vexations' ...and the last part of George Crumb's Makrokosmos..
