He lost his sight at the age of 7, began learning the koto at age 9 and left for Seoul three years later. There he taught koto lessons in order to support his family, at a time when South Korea was still occupied by the Japanese. Upon returning to Tokyo, he created a new genre called shin nihon ongaku (new Japanese music). During the 64 years of his life, he composed over 300 works. Haru no umi (The Sea in Spring) is his most famous piece; it symbolises the New Year in the hearts of contemporary Japanese people.
