There he learned composition and orchestration from Olivier Messiaen, Tony Oban, and Nadia Boulanger. He returned home in 1956. He received several prizes for his compositions, including the Eighth Mainichi Music Prize in 1957 for ''String Quartet'', which he had written while studying abroad, and Sixteenth Otaka Prize and the Twenty-first National Art Festival Award in 1968 for his ''Piano Concerto'' (1964–1967) which was commissioned by NHK.
