As a work of Oriental avant-garde music, it is frequently performed in Europe and America. Through its abstract atonality, constant tempo changes, frequent use of silence, and lingering pedal resonance, it achieves a "state of nothingness" (mu) akin to that found in Oriental calligraphy and Noh theater.
