From me flows what you call Time is a 1990 concerto for five percussionists and orchestra by the Japanese composer Tōru Takemitsu. It is considered one of the best of Takemitsu's late works.[1]
Conception
From me flows what you call Time was commissioned by the Carnegie Hall Foundation to celebrate Carnegie Hall's centennial season, and was premiered on October 19, 1990 by Nexus and the Boston Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Seiji Ozawa.[2] The title is taken from the poem "Clear Blue Water" by Makoto Ōoka, a Japanese poet and a friend of Takemitsu's.[3]
Composition
Takemitsu intended the work to represent the music that had "flowed" through Carnegie Hall throughout its hundred-year history.[3] As in many of Takemitsu's works, a blend of European and Japanese traditions creates a unique idiom.[1][3]
The piece includes several improvised sections, an element inspired by John Cage's indeterminacy.[4] In the score, Takemitsu noted that "the performance should give the impression of being completely improvised."[1]
After a brief flute solo at the piece's opening, the five solo percussionists enter the hall. Each is wearing a pocket square of a different color, each meant to represent one of the natural phenomena (blue for water, red for fire, yellow for earth, green for wind, and white for sky). These colors are meant to represent the Tibetan Buddhist principle of Wind Horse. In the same colors are long ribbons, linking the stage to bells and chimes hung from the hall's ceiling.[1][3] Later in the piece, the ribbons are used by the players to ring these bells.[5]
