“Odor of time” is a theme which I chose especially for string instruments. I had already composed earlier works with this title.

This piece for solo violin is therefore to be understood as a continuation, although not necessarily in a nostalgic sense. Rather, it suggests a feeling that seeks to resist the inexorable flow of time, or an emotion that suddenly surges from the subconscious, like a redolence.

“Snow” in the title has a similar meaning. When snow quietly wafts down by night and covers a landscape we are not unmoved; its sound conveys a sign from the unconscious. (from the prologue by Toshiyuki Bamba)

‘’Snow - Odor of Time for violin solo’’ was received the best prize in the Music Today (leaded by T. Takemitsu) composition contest of 1993.
