Composed by Satoshi Yagisawa. Brilliant Marches. Concert March. Set (Score & Parts). Composed 2017. De Haske Publications #DHP 1175712-010. Published by De Haske Publications (BT.DHP-1175712-010).

This work was composed as a commission by the Keika Gakuen Symphonic Band, to commemorate their 40th annual concert. The composition is a march-style work that begins with a chorale based on a theme from the school song—a distinctive motif that reappears in the middle section. Tetsuya Kashino, a graduate of the high school, is a band coach and has a deep friendship with the composer. Kashino named the work Scent of Spring, which reflects two distinct meanings—firstly, in Japanese, a part of the band’s own name, and also “a premiere in Spring”. Scent of Spring is a bright and optimistic piece of music, suitable to perform on various occasions.

Dit werk is geschreven in opdracht van de Keika Gakuen Symphonic Band, een schoolorkest uit Tokio, ter gelegenheid van hun veertigste jaarconcert. Deze in marsstijl geschreven compositie begint met een op een thema uit het schoollied gebaseerd koraal: een motief dat nog eens opduikt in het middengedeelte. Tetsuya Kashino, een orkestleider die zelf ook op de betreffende school heeft gezeten, is nauw bevriend met de componist: hij heeft het werk Scent of Spring gedoopt, met in zijn achterhoofd twee betekenissen: ten eerste komt deze titel in het Japans deels overeen met de orkestnaam, ook verwijst de titel naar ‘een première in de lente’. Scent of Spring iseen opgewekt, optimistisch werk dat geschikt is voor diverse gelegenheden.

Dieses Werk wurde von der Keika Gakuen Symphonic Band anlässlich des 40-jährigen Konzertjubiläums in Auftrag gegeben. Das Werk wurde im Marschstil komponiert und beginnt mit einem Choral, der auf einem Thema des Schulliedes basiert ein charakteristisches Motiv, das im Mittelteil wieder aufgenommen wird. Tetsuya Kashino, ein Absolvent der Highschool, ist Orchesterleiter und eng mit dem Komponisten befreundet. Kashino gab dem Werk den Titel Scent of Spring“, was zwei verschiedene Bedeutungen zum Ausdruck bringt: einerseits ist es ein Teil des Orchesternamens auf Japanisch, andererseits bedeutet es eine Premiere im Frühling“. Scent of Spring ist ein fröhliches undoptimistisches Musikstück, das sich für alle möglichen Gelegenheiten eignet.

Cette œuvre a été composée en commande du Keika Gakuen Symphonic Band pour célébrer son 40e concert annuel. Cette composition dans un style de marche commence par un choral basé sur un thème de l’hymne de l’école, qui est un motif distinctif et réapparaît dans la section du milieu. Tetsuya Kashino, diplômé de l’école secondaire, et répétiteur de la formation et très bon ami du compositeur. Il a donné le titre de Scent of Spring (« parfum de printemps ») l’œuvre, ce qui a deux sens différents : d’abord, une partie du nom de la formation en japonais, mais aussi une allusion sa première qui eut lieu au printemps. Scent of Spring est une pièce de musique vive etoptimiste qui convient chaque occasion.

Questo lavoro è stato commissionato dalla Keika Gakuen Symphonic Band, per commemorare con un concerto il loro 40esimo anniversario. La composizione ha lo stile di una marcia che comincia con una corale basata su un tema della canzone della scuola - un tema distintivo che riappare anche nella sezione di mezzo. Tetsuya Kashino, insegnante della Banda e legato da profonda amicizia col compositore, ha voluto intitolare la composizione Scent of Spring, nome che riflette due significati distinti - in primo luogo, in giapponese, una parte del nome proprio della banda, ma anche col significato di una prima in primavera. Scent of Spring è un brano musicale brillante eottimista, adatto per essere eseguito in diverse occasioni.

Alex Freeman's (b. 1972) Cathedral of Spring for chamber choir (2019) to poems of e.e. cummings and Robert Frost was commissioned and premiered by Somnium Ensemble. The composer tells: For the celebration of the 10th anniversary of Somnium Ensemble (Finland), I was commissioned to write a piece with spring as a central theme. While contemplating that and perusing appropriate poetry, I was inspired by memories of the night-time sky in early spring--the warm air, the teeming, buzzing energy of life all around, and an expansive dome of stars overhead. I then imagined that moment in time as a kind of sacred space; this is the point where the cathedral notion came to mind. The frenetic and joyous poetry of e.e. cummings, from his Epithalamion, gives an exclamatory introduction to the set, followed by his vision of spring from the point of view of giddy children in his iconic poem, [in Just-]. We then take a moment to contemplate the ephemerality of all this beauty (spring giveth and spring taketh away, i.e. an offertorium of sorts); Robert Frost's Blue-Butterfly Day places us in a moment where, by chance, we find ourselves enveloped by a delicately fluttering swarm of butterflies. Peaceful and still, yet in constant flux, we spend a some time taking that phenomenon in, while also experiencing a twinge of the realisation that this is truly fleeting. The final movement, returning to a later stanza from Epithalamion, cummings's sparkling paean to May is set as a kind of final anthem..
