Rentarō Taki(滝 廉太郎,Taki Rentarō, August 24, 1879–June 29, 1903) was a pianist and one of the best-known composers of Japan.
Taki was born in Tokyo, but moved to many places during his childhood owing to his father's job. He graduated from the Tokyo Music School in 1901. One of his famous pieces is Kōjō no Tsuki, which was included in the songbook for junior high school students, along with the Hakone-Hachiri (箱根八里). Hana (花, "Flower") is a well-known song, too.
In the same year, Taki went to the Leipzig Conservatory, Germany to study music further, but fell seriously ill with tuberculosis of the lungs and came back to Japan. He lived quietly in the country afterwards, but soon died at the age of 23. His posthumous work is a solo piano piece called Urami (憾), which he wrote four months before he died. It is said that he laid the meaning of "regret" in the title of his last piece.
German rock band Scorpions did a cover of Kōjō no Tsuki on the 1978 album Tokyo Tapes.
Argentinean folk group Los Cantores de Quilla Huasi recorded a version of "Kojo no Tsuki".
My favourite piece from this composer.
It might seem strange that I'm uploading Japanese music, but I want to reveal to the world that there a more than just European and American composers out there!
I hope you enjoy this beautiful piece...

Rentarō Taki - Minuet in B Minor (1900)
Menuetto in B Minor by Rentarō Taki (alternatively romanized as Rentarou Taki or Rentaro Taki) ranks among Japan’s first ever solo pieces composed for the piano. It is structured in the rounded binary form that characterizes Minuets and Trios; a procedure solidified during Lully’s days.
Rentarō Taki was part of the first generation of Japanese composers to shape the art music of his land. During his life, Japan, a country that already has its own indigenous music tradition, endeavored to modernize in order to compete with the Occident and avoid being colonized like its neighbors. Not only were European guns and bureaucracy imported, but also European culture and industry, such as its music. The efforts of 19th and 20th century Japan were so successful that the nation not only moderni...

Not only were European guns and bureaucracy imported, but also European culture and industry, such as its music. The efforts of 19th and 20th century Japan were so successful that the nation not only modernized enough to join the Imperial Powers of the West, but became thoroughly Westernized.
Unfortunately, Taki’s life was cut short when he caught a violent bout of tuberculosis at the Leipzig Conservatory, and died in the Japanese countryside at the age of 23. He left behind a small selection of works, with the most famous being “Kōjō no Tsuki”.
