Voyage Into The Blue

Voyage Into The Blue was commissioned by the Windbands of Mizumaki Minami Junior High School, Koyo Junior High School and Fukuma Junior High School bands performed the work in a competition. The pictorial music describes the voyage of an airplane. The introduction depicts the take-off, which is then embellished by the following section marked 'energico'. The second movement is an attractive setting of the flight itself. The slow section depicts a star-filled night sky. The close presents the landing at dawn: the flight is over. A beautiful and exciting musical journey!
