Thispiece concludes with a fanfare, which is the sound of hope that leads to a brighter future in a positive direction.The world premiere of this piece was conducted by Faizal Bin Othman, who is one of the leading educators in Singapore, and was performed by the Yuying Secondary School Concert Band.

Like the Eagle, We Soar and Rise is geschreven in opdracht van de Yuying Secondary School Concert Band en de Yuying Alumni Association, ter gelegenheid van het honderdjarig bestaan van de school in 2010. Het werk kreeg zijnnaam van een vriend van de componist, Steven Phua, van wie in eerste instantie het voorstel kwam een nieuw werk bij Satoshi Yagisawa in opdracht te geven. De titel is gebaseerd op de tekst van het schoollied van de Yuying SecondarySchool. De compositie is gestoeld op drie verschillende gegevens: het eerste weerspiegelt de liefde voor onderwijs van de oprichters destijds, het tweede behelst de ontberingen in oorlogstijd, en het derde betreft de kijk op detoekomst -waarbij de innerlijke kracht van mensen helpt moeilijkheden te overwinnen. Het werk eindigt met een fanfare: de klank van hoop die vol optimisme een betere toekomst verkondigt. De wereldpremière werd uitgevoerd door de YuyingSecondary School Concert Band, onder leiding van Faizal Bin Othman, een van de meest gerenommeerde muziekpedagogen in Singapore.

Like the Eagle, We Soar and Rise war ein Kompositionsauftrag des Blasorchesters der Yuying Secondary School und des Yuying-Alumni-Verbandes (Singapur). Anlass des Auftrags war das hundertjährige Jubiläum der Schulgründung im Jahr 2010. Der Werktitel stammt von einem Freund des Komponisten namens Steven Phua, der auch die Idee hatte, ein neues Stück von Satoshi Yagiswa schreiben zu lassen. Außerdem bezieht sich der Titel auf den Text des Schulliedes.Dieses Werk basiert auf drei unterschiedlichen Konzepten: Das erste spiegelt die Leidenschaft der Gründer für das Lehren wider; das zweite Konzept beschreibt die Not in Kriegszeiten; das dritte Konzept mit dem TitelTo the Future“ (zur Zukunft hingewandt) handelt von der inneren Stärke, die Menschen entwickeln, um Schwierigkeiten zu überwinden. Das Werk endet mit einer Fanfare, die der Hoffnung auf eine bessere Zukunft Klang verleiht.Die Weltpremiere von Like the Eagle, We Soar and Rise wurde von Faizal Bin Othman, einem der führenden Lehrbeauftragten von Singapur, dirigiert. Es spielte das Blasorchester der Yuying Secondary School.

Like the Eagle, We Soar and Rise (Comme l’aigle, nous prenons notre essor) est une commande de l’Orchestre vent du collège de Yuying et de l’Association des anciens élèves de Yuying pour marquer le bicentenaire de la fondation du collège. Son titre lui a été donné par un ami du compositeur, Steven Phua, qui avait suggéré la commande d’une nouvelle composition Satoshi Yagisawa. Le titre lui-même est tiré du texte d’une chanson du collège de Yuying.Cette composition s’articule autour de trois concepts : le premier exprime ‘‘La passion des fondateurs pour l’éducation’’ ; le deuxième illustre ‘‘Les privations en temps de guerre’’ ; le troisième concept, ‘‘Versl’avenir’’, évoque la force intérieure que l’on trouve en soi pour surmonter les obstacles. La pièce s’achève par une fanfare, représentation sonore de l’espoir qui mène vers un avenir prometteur. La création mondiale de l’oeuvre fut donnée par l’Orchestre vent du collège de Yuying sous la direction de Faizal Bin Othman, éminent professeur de musique de Singapour.

La movimentata storia di un istituto scolastico in occasione dei festeggiamenti per il suo centenario, ha spinto Satoshi Yagisawa a comporre questo brano basandosi su tre idee ben distinte: la passione per lo studio, la sofferenza durante i periodi di guerra e la speranza in un futuro migliore, simboleggiato dalla fanfara finale.
