Bad Boy For 2 Guitars

by Toru Takemitsu

"Furyo Shonen" is based on the memories of a juvenile offender; in order to preserve the documentary character of his film, Susumo Hani worked almost exclusively with amateur actors, one of whom sang the song "Maru to Sankaku no Uta" (see below) in the film. During the filming, Takemitsu had to rewrite the originally composed music several times, as it met Hani's rejection. The version for two guitars, published in 1993, was arranged by the well-known Japanese guitarist Norio Sato at the special request of Toru Takemitsu, who had already worked with him several times and held him in high regard as one of the most prominent guitarists in Japan.
