Shukō Mizuno (1934-2011) was a Japanese composer whose output ranges widely, with large orchestral and choral forms at its centre in later years. His Symphony No. 2, subtitled Sakura after the city in Chiba where it was premiered, is heard here in a live recording from November 1999 at the Sakura Shimin Ongaku Hall.
The second work, the symphonic poem Summer, was recorded live at Tokyo Bunka Kaikan in May 1989. Both performances are by the Tokyo Symphony Orchestra. A 2000 release on the Japanese label Camerata, a rare chance to hear Mizuno outside Japan.
