The final movement of the suite Songs of Hakuho, composed with thoughts on the Tenpyo period. This suite consists of Roketsu and Wagon, inspired by artifacts from the Shosoin Repository, and Suien, named after the flame-shaped ornament at the top of the East Pagoda of Yakushiji Temple in Nara. This work, from 1930, when the 33-year-old composer was creating Impressionistic music, shows the influence of Debussy both in its musical style and its titling. A fierce and rapid first section appears three times, accompanied by modulations, while a graceful second section, containing a pentatonic-like melody, is inserted twice in between.
