Yasuji Kiyose

Yasuji Kiyose

Yasuji Kiyose (清瀬保二 "Kiyose Yasuji", 13 January, 190014 September, 1981) was a Japanese composer. He studied composition privately with Kōsaku Yamada and Kōsuke Komatsu and in 1930, took an active part in organizing the Shinkō Sakkyokuka Renmei, (which later grew into the Japanese section of the ISCM). [ GroveOnline|Kiyose, Yasuji|Masakata Kanazawa|28 May|2007 ]

In 1948, Kiyose took on Hiroyoshi Suzuki and Tōru Takemitsu for a brief period as pupils in composition. [ Peter Burt, "The Music of Toru Takemitsu", (Cambridge, 2001), p. 25 ISBN 9780521026956]

His music at times incorporates Japanese pentatonic scales, and other elements of Japanese folk-song; his far better known pupil Takemitsu, developed this tendency further in a great number of his works. [ GroveOnline|Kiyose, Yasuji|Masakata Kanazawa|28 May|2007 ]
