The effective use of solo percussion, combined with an elegant orchestration, brought a warm reception at the premiere of this work from Satoshi Yagisawa’s ‘Concertino Series’. Yagisawa’s style is usually considered as rather dramatic, however, inthis piece he adds a whole new dimension to his compositional skills.Dit concertino is in opdracht geschreven voor de Japanse slagwerker Kazuko Ogawa - als aanvulling op Satoshi Yagisawa’s concertserie (trompet, trombone, marimba, saxofoon en klarinet met harmonieorkest). De wereldpremière werd uitgevoerddoor het Kasukabe Kyoei Junior and Senior High School Wind Orchestra, samen met gastslagwerker Kazuko Ogawa. Het geheel stond onder leiding van Jotaro Tsuga, die in 2009 dirigent van het betreffende orkest was. De effectievetoepassing van het solistische slagwerk en de elegante orkestratie zijn sinds de première alom geprezen. Satoshi Yagisawa’s stijl was altijd vrij theatraal, maar in dit werk hanteert hij een nieuw idioom.Grad 5 for the soloistDer wirkungsvolle Einsatz von Solo-Percussion kombiniert mit einer eleganten Orchestrierung fand schon in der Premiere dieses Werkes aus der Concertino-Reihe“ von Satoshi Yagisawa großen Anklang. Yagisawas Stil ist eigentlich als eher dramatischbekannt, doch in diesem Stück kann man eine ganz neue Seite seiner Kompositionskunst erkennen.Cette pièce vient compléter la série de concertos composés par Satoshi Yagisawa. L’écriture d’un authentique solo de percussion ainsi que l’élégante orchestration font de ce concertino une oeuvre exceptionnelle, largement appréciée par l’auditoire.Le style d’écriture de Satoshi Yagisawa est habituellement dramatique, mais il se pourrait fort bien qu’une empreinte de couleur différente nous soit offerte avec Concertino pour Percussion et Orchestre Vent !L’uso efficace della percussione solista, combinato ad un’elegante orchestrazione, ha avuto grande risconto in occasione della prima di quest’opera della “Concertino-Series†di Satoshi Yagisawa. Lo stile del compositore giapponese è sicuramentedrammatico, ma in questo brano si può scoprire un lato completamente nuovo della sua arte compositiva.
