Japanese Minimalist Repertoire

[soliloquy]

I know of Ichiyanagi and Takahashi, but it's a genre I'm rather unfamiliar with, and have been growing more and more interested in.  Does anyone here know of some other composers that write in this style I should look into?  I'm also interested in some specific and/or particularly good piano pieces of this milieu


Also, I assume this movement is not called "Japanese Minimalist", so if someone wants to give me the proper name for it, let's leave the "Sciarrino would have..." out of it XP

takahashi is the only one i really know anything about regarding this type of music. does takemitsu also fall into this? or is he not part of this?

btw, i doubt that there will be many (intelligent) replies to this thread. this forum doesnt strike me as having many fans of this or similar types of music.
