Composed for the debut recital of his friend, Yuji Takahashi (composer and pianist). The title "Piano Distant" holds no particular significance. The musical staff is segmented every three seconds, with minute dynamic and expressive markings inscribed for each note. In its compositional style, the strong influence of the Second Viennese School and the spatiotemporal structure of "Noh" can be clearly observed.
