Toshio Hosokawa's works have had a flower as their theme for a long time, and recently the image of a lotus has dominated his composing. Blossoming was inspired by this image. Hosokawa says:The lotus sends its roots deep into the mud beneath the surface of the pond; the stem stretches through the water toward the surface and the sky; the bud is blossoming toward the morning sunshine. This work is a very beautiful quartet with a fantastic soundworld.

Cicada larvae live underground for years, creeping about slowly and peacefully in the darkness until that sudden, beautiful brief moment when, one warm, damp summer’s eve, they emerge, metamorphosed into a highly mobile life form. Gaily they dance in the sunshine, singing ardently to the trees in all their greenery --- but only for a short while, for, just as suddenly, they are gone. The same process repeats year upon year. The life cycle of this string quartet resembles that of the cicada. Initially, two embryonic cells remain hidden within dense, gloomy note-clusters; over time they evolve into buds, grow and then blossom. They appear for the first time in their adult form in the fast middle section, where they assume the shape of two very popular Chinese folk melodies, Jasmine and Old Six Blows, albeit in wholly chromaticized and defamiliarized variants. After their grand efflorescence, these forms gradually dissolve into transparent wisps of sound.
