When Miki wrote this, his second solo for 20-string koto, he had in mind a work which would avoid the over seriousness of Tennyo. He also had in mind two wonderfully evocative titles derived from the ancient Japanese legend about Sao and Tatsuta, the goddesses who presided over spring and autumn respectively. This and the next piece, Tatsuta-no-kyoku, describe what Miki sees as the two polar aspects of the personality of the koto - and these same two aspects can be found in the performer, Keiko Nosaka.
