Among the works of Shostakovich, one of the greatest composers of the 20th century, the especially famous waltz is the Second Waltz from the Jazz Suite.

The SoundgraphyCASIOPEA
Alongside T-SQUARE, the most well-known Japanese fusion band is arguably Casiopea.
Formed in 1977 around guitarist-composer and sole original member Issei Noro, Casiopea leveraged a finely honed band ensemble grounded in solid technique, combined with an accessible pop sensibility, to achieve major commercial success as an instrumental group.
The musical approach they developed has influenced later musicians to the extent that people speak of a “Casiopea-like” style.
Although their popularity waned at times due to shifts in musical direction, they consistently remained at the forefront, eventually going on hiatus in 2006 to much regret.
In 2012, on their 35th anniversary, the band resumed activity under the new name CASIOPEA 3rd, and they continue to be active even now, well into the 2020s.
