[Percussion 1] Bamboo, Tom (Large) | [Percussion 2] Bamboo, Bongos, Tom (Medium), 2 Congas | [Percussion 3] Bamboo, 2 Congas, Bass Drum | [Percussion 4] Bamboo, Snare Drum, Tom (Large)I had the opportunity to have a part in the film score of “Chushingura” (The Treasury of Loyal Retainers). The fragmented motifs used in the soundtrack are the origin of this song.I limited the equipment to what I used in the film score, such as bamboo and drums. The content is not directly related to Chushingura, but it is a song I wrote with the intention of describing how people in a historic event are determined to face their fates. Commissioned by percussion ensemble “A-UN” and premiered at the Osaka Philharmonic Hall in June 2008.(Daiji Yokota)
