Original work by Masakazu Yamamoto.
The majestic figure of the many layers of mountains shows the heights of art that cannot catch up with humans who are small beings, and we are immediately fascinated by the beautifully drawn ridgeline.
This composition has been created with the aim of painting expression, that based on the imagination that the mountain itself or something that lives there protects the mountain and its surroundings.
The theme is the Holy-ghost dancing lightly, the vital energy of the animals and plants that live there, and the majesty of the mountains, and they appear colorfully in various ways, such as the free intertwining of each phrase and powerful grooves that combines a wide variety of rhythms.
The song shows tranquility and freedom at the beginning.
In the first half of main part, the light and rhythmic theme and the calm majestic theme depict the contrast of each scene.
In the second half, the tempo changes intermittently and gradually uplifts, and eventually it makes a climax through the return of the subject.
It was created as a commissioned work to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the foundation of the Kofu Citizen Concert Band.
It premiered by the band in March 2018.
