Described by the composer as “bombastic, but with a groove” this work for young players opens with striking percussion statements. The band enters gradually, first with unison figures along with the percussion, and then additional layers. A contrasting slow section with flowing lines and minor harmonies sets the stage for the dramatic final section. A great way to showcase your percussion section. Dur: 4:10 (Grade 2).

Little Tokyo Suite is a work in three movements for wind ensemble, with a flexible 10-part orchestration suitable for concert band or fanfare band.

The three movements each focus on a region with such a Japanese community. This suite is dedicated to the concert band of the conservatory of the 12th arrondissement of Paris, whose conductor is a lover of Japanese culture, and to Mochizuki Junior High School, Saku City (Nagano, Japan). They premiered this work, 10,000 km away from each other, in 2022.
