Toshiro Mayuzumi (黛 敏郎, Mayuzumi Toshirō, Japanese pronunciation:[majɯꜜzɯmitoɕiɾoː]; 20 February 1929 – 10 April 1997) was a Japanese composer known for his implementation of avant-garde instrumentation alongside traditional Japanese musical techniques. His works drew inspiration from a variety of sources ranging from jazz to Balinese music, and he was considered a pioneer in the realm of musique concrète and electronic music,[1][2] being the first artist in his country to explore these techniques.[3] Over the span of his career, he has written symphonies, ballets, operas, and film scores.[4] Mayuzumi was the recipient of an Otaka prize by the NHK Symphony Orchestra and the Purple Medal of Merit.[5]
