Description
[Machine Translation] This is the third in a series of studio recordings of Tokyo Kosei Wind Orchestra's performances of standard wind band pieces and popular pieces that are sure to become standard in the future. The conductor for this third recording is Yukio Fujioka, who is known worldwide as the principal conductor of the Kansai Philharmonic Orchestra and as an introduction to Takashi Yoshimatsu. The selection of music was also carefully chosen, including the heroic music of "Arsenal," a standard concert march, "Romanesque," a beautiful choral piece that is a standard piece for graduation ceremonies, "Runner of the Spirit," which was popular as the theme song for the 2009 Hakone Ekiden, "Bolero in Pops," a popular standard piece, and "Africa," a must for high school baseball players, as well as "Pas de de deux," a popular piece for the annual high school baseball tournament. The album is packed with famous songs that everyone knows and loves, such as "African Symphony," a must-have for high school baseball cheerleaders. The TKWO also includes a commissioned work from 2013, "La Folia" by Yasuhide Ito, a new masterpiece that showcases TKWO's powerful ensemble and the virtuosity of each player.
