This is a Modern piece . This piece was composed for shakuhachi by Neptune, John Kaizan in 1982 .

Evening Waves appears on the following albums:

Album	Shakuhachi	Koto	Shamisen
Dance for the One in Six  (Listen)	Neptune, John Kaizan
I worked a long time to come up with other movements to this piece, but eventually decided the simple melody in 3/4 meter, the simple repeated harmonic structure, and one repeated break (plus some improvisation, of course) were enough!
