Yoshihisa Taira

[soliloquy]

I was wondering if anyone here liked Taira.  If you don't know who he is, he's a modernist Japanese composer.  His music would best be descibed as a combination of Dutilleux and Stockhausen, as odd as that sounds XD  Despite his being Japanese and working in Tokyo, he was a studen of Messiaen, Jolivet and Dutilleux, so there is some very interesting fusion of Post-Impressionism and Post-Darmstadt in his music that I haven't heard in any other composers :O  Does anyone here listen to his music?
