The music on Burning House ranges from pieces inspired by traditional koto music through to works which draw their inspiration from sources totally unrelated to Japanese culture.
Burning House won the 1998 Sounds Australian Award.

Satsuki Odamura's performance of Burning House, for koto and her own voice, was intimate and meditative, and was especially enchanting.
