To my current understanding (i.e. various google searches, looking for the publishers website, seeing if there's any mention of it for sale as new, amazon, etc), only 'new old stock' and used copies of this are available if you can find them at all. I do not have any volumes after No. 1 (yet), if/when I come across another I will post.

Sonatinas Collection 1, Ongaku No Tomo Edition (Japan).
"8 pieces by Toroque Takagui, Tomojiro Ikenouchi, Hisatada Otaka, Kazuo Yamada, Akihiro Tsukatani, Hajime Okumura, Akira Miyoshi and Kazuko Hara, a sampling of Japanese modern compositions in a classical form"

70.55 MB (I used the lowest settings I could use that would allow for clear image scans with the particular machine I was using, I experimented with several options before going with this one)

A cropped, deskewed and monochromed version of this collection of Japanese sonatinas.
The file came out a bit bigger, but after 113pp I didn't want to go back and resize all the pages.
Sonatinas (Japan) Collection 1 Ongaku No Tomo Edition (bw).pdf
Since Scriabinoff posted this, a performance has appeared on YouTube (with score) of one of the works therein by Tomojiro Ikenouchi.


According to the Youtube comments, Ikenouchi (1906-1991) was a leading figure in producing Western music in post-war Japan.

Please don't create new threads for a single post, and at least do the courtesy of translating the content for other forum users.
I will move this to the "China Japan and the Far East" thread shortly.

Piano Concerto "Fighting Typhoon" · performed by Liu Shikun (1939-...)
Composer: Wang Changyuan (1945- )
https://wangchangyuan.com/index.html

Contacting the composer or performer (both living) would be the most direct route

I am surprised by the CONCERTO.
I have the solo piano version.......... (It wlas published by a relatively unknown Hong Kong PUblisher).
This is originally a chinese instrumental piece..... The Chinese Zither (Chinese pronunciation of this instrument is Gu Zheng) and the original composition (composed 1965) and here is the original


Anyway, it was soon transcribed into a piano solo, and made populari by Liu ShiKun (刘诗昆) who won third prize and the Special Prize of the Liszt International Piano Competition in Budapest in 1956 and was awarded a strand of Franz Liszt's hair. In 1958, he shared with Lev Vlassenko the second prize in the First Tchaikovsky International Piano Competition in Moscow.

Liu performed the CONCERTO version in 1977, but he more frequently performed the piano solo version (frequently as encore)

If you want the piano solo version...... i can try very very very hard to search for my scores..... it is somewhere in my library, but i last use it in 1990s....
Or you can see it from this youtube


Please forgive the political propoganda at the beginning part of the video
