The history of Western music begins with monophonic and polyphonic church music, followed by secular music like court and folk music.
This development of music can be attributed to the historical context faced by humanity and the background used as a means of expressing various events, beauty, richness, and complexity.

In this work, a theme presents each chapter, and the next scene tells a new episode. As an homage to Renaissance music 500 years ago, there are scenes like polyphonic and vocal music.(Premiere: 2014 Tokyo Metropolitan KATSUSHIKA SOGO High School)

(Yosuke Fukuda)
