In post-World War II Japan, interest grew in Western music. Among the genres that sparked interest was electronic music, then taking off in experimental music circles in North America and Europe. In this two-part series, we'll listen to examples of formative electronic music on tape and in performance prior to the synthesizer. Part 1 covers 1953-1963. Part 2 covers 1960 to 1975.
