Isao Tomita is celebrating his 92nd birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed composers of his generation.

Popular composer Isao Tomita (Snowflakes Are Dancing, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 92nd birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Tomita, a cultural icon

Born in Tokyo on April 22, 1932, Isao Tomita's career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Japanese history. Tomita's not just a great composer, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Isao hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Isao Tomita as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 92.

Happy Birthday, Isao, you're the best!
