Henry Cowell wrote the piano piece The Snows of Fuji-Yama^{[n 1]}, HC 395, in 1924.

The piece was from Cowell's tone cluster phase and was his first expedition into the foray of Asian-inspired music, using black-key clusters to emphasize a pentatonic scale in F♯ major.^[1] He first performed the piece at a concert in the Los Angeles Millennium Biltmore Hotel on November 20, 1926.^[2]
