Have I mentioned Susumu Yokota before. He's one of my favourite Japanese musicians. He seems to use a lot of different styles.

This is the first time I heard of his name!
Purple Rose Minuet, sounds like one of Schumann's piece.
Nevertheless this is beautifully arranged.

It's from Debussy's Suite Bergamasque, I posted a couple of movements from it before, but the quotation/sample in that track is from the Claire de Lune movement which I didn't post. It's Debussy's most well known melody. (I hear it was used in the Twilight movies).

However, I like the way Susumu Yokota spices it up a bit.

I did not know about Twilight.

I like Tchaikovsky, too. However, only familiar ones are those 3~4 ballet music for me.

Hearing this is making me want some coffee. I guess I'll have to settle for decaf.
