Hi

For anyone interested, here's a list of Japanese composers.

megaupload.com/?d=S5PLNUJV

The track listing is as follows:

Yuzo Toyama - Rhapsody for Orchestra (1960)
Hidemaro Konoye - Etenraku (1931)
Akira Ifukube - Japanese Rhapsody (1935) (Two parts: I. Nocturne II. Fetes)
Yasushi Akutagawa - Music for Orchestra (1950) - (Two parts: I. Andantino II. Allegro)
Kiyoshige Koyama - Kobiki-Uta for Orchestra (1957)
Takashi Yoshimatsu - Threnody to Toki, op.12 (1980)

All are recordings by the label Naxos (naxos.com)
Also a note that: It's not the most accessible music, since there's quite a bit of 20th century European influences. It can get a bit abstract at times!
