解説 | 祝祭感あふれるファンファーレ形式の吹奏楽作品。輝かしい金管のファンファーレで幕を開け、木管や打楽器が加わることで、多彩で生き生きとしたサウンドを展開します。軽快なリズムと明快な旋律が、未来への希望や若さのエネルギーを感じさせ、演奏者と聴衆を高揚させる楽曲です。晴れやかな式典やコンサートのオープナーに最適な一曲です。 (出版社のオリジナル解説) This piece was a commissioning piece to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Santa Monica College’s Emeritus program. When I first heard the piece’s title the college gave me, I felt that the music should be somewhat heavy and strict overall, which is quite far from my favorite image. But while I was drafting the piece, the idea came to me that the music should focus on their bright future, so the color of the music should be bright, broad, mature, and gentle. This was the concept of the music. I included three sections in this piece. The first section is “Rising,” which tells about the school’s history determinedly; the second is “Brilliance,” which is about growing ahead of the future using vivid color, rhythmic passages, and lots of percussion sounds. The finale is “Chorale,” which expresses everyone’s hope. The thick harmony sounds like a pipe organ till the end. |
