Program Notes
This work was composed as ceremonial music, as part of a march medley for the participants' entry for the 71st National Sports Festival and the 16th National Disabled Personnel Sports Festival, held in Iwate Prefecture [Japan] in 2016. Since Iwate was the birthplace of the composer, he has used a theme of Chagu-Chagu-Umakko (horses with jingling bells) — a lovely Iwate folksong -- as a motif.
The world première was performed by the Morioka Symphonic Band conducted by the composer himself in February 2015. The European première took place in December 2016, the composer guest conducting the Young Musicians from Fribourg, Switzerland. This work, fusing Japanese folk song with march music, will have wide appeal, like the sister work March-Bou-Shu.
