Program Notes

Commissioned by Tokai City Wind Music Band for their 40th anniversary celebration. They gave the composer a difficult theme, that is: For 40 years we did our activity as if we were a family. We had new experiences, welcoming new members, supporting and helping one another, sometimes having troubles. Through these experiences, the band became our Sun. With the piece, we would like to express our enthusiasm for progress, taking over the early members’ will. The composer used to join in a school band, so he strongly agreed with the theme, but composing is another hard thing to do. He decided to drop in on the band almost every time he went to Nagoya, and promoted friendship with them, which led him to compose this piece.
