In 2006, I received a request from "Ensemble Fanfare" to compose a song about the sky.One of my favorite poems says "The closer you try to touch the blue of the sky, the farther away it goes." With the image that the song also moves away as one gets closer, I collected motifs that appear one after another and change.It would be greatly appreciated if you could embrace this as a song that gives an impression of the sky (which can be freely interpreted by player or listener) rather than a song where you sympathize with a lyrical tune.
