Menuetto in B Minor by
Menuetto in B Minor by Rentarō Taki (alternatively romanized as Rentarou Taki or Rentaro Taki) ranks among Japan’s first ever solo pieces composed for the piano. It is structured in the rounded binary form that characterizes Minuets and Trios; a procedure solidified during Lully’s days.
Rentarō Taki was part of the first generation of Japanese composers to shape the art music of his land. During his life, Japan, a country that already has its own indigenous music tradition, endeavored to modernize in order to compete with the Occident and avoid being colonized like its neighbors. Not only were European guns and bureaucracy imported, but also European culture and industry, such as its music. The efforts of 19th and 20th century Japan were so successful that the nation not only modernized enough to join the Imperial Powers of the West, but became thoroughly Westernized.
Unfortunately, Taki’s life was cut short when he caught a violent bout of tuberculosis at the Leipzig Conservatory, and died in the Japanese countryside at the age of 23. He left behind a small selection of works, with the most famous being “Kōjō no Tsuki”.
