Satoshi Yagisawa has lived in Ichikawa City, Chiba Prefecture in Japan since he was in elementary school. Around Christmas time every year in Ichikawa City, seven Chiba high school bands hold a joint concert. For the 20th anniversary the composer was asked to write a piece to be performed to close the concert. This piece was first performed in 2010 by Tadashi Yoshida, conductor and close friend of Satoshi Yagisawa, with a combined wind orchestra from Chiba Prefectural Kokubun High School, Chiba Prefectural Ichikawa Nishi High School, Chiba Prefectural Matsudo Mutsumi High School, Chiba Prefectural Matsudo Akiyama High School, Chiba Prefectural Matsudo Yakiri High School,Chiba Prefectural Funabashi Nishi High School and Chiba Prefectural Shiroi High School. The title was chosen from suggestions submitted by participating students. Dream Cruise was chosen by Satomi Otsu, a junior in Chiba Prefectural Matsudo Mutsumi High School Wind Orchestra. The composer skillfully scored this piece and created the chorus part so that all the hundreds of students could participate in the performance. This version has been revised so it can be played without the chorus part.

In de Japanse stad Ichikawa City, de woonplaats van Satoshi Yagisawa, houden zeven schoolorkesten ieder jaar rond kerst een gezamenlijk concert. Met zoveel deelnemers was de componist er veel aan gelegen een werk te orkestreren waaraan iedereen kon deelnemen. Zo componeerde Yagisawa het werk bijzonder zorgvuldig, met toevoeging van een koorpartij. Op deze manier konden alle leerlingen aan het optreden meedoen. Deze herziene versie kunt u zowel mét als zonder koor uitvoeren.

Drea m Cruise schrieb der Japaner Satoshi Yagisawa für ein Konzert von einem Zusammenschluss aus sieben Schulblasorchestern seiner Heimatstadt Ichikawa. So war es ihm ein Anliegen, ein besonderes Werk zu schaffen, das er mit großer Sorgfalt orchestrierte und mit einer Chorstimme ausstattete, die eine Aufführung mit einer großen Anzahl an Musikern und Sängern erlaubt, aber auch weggelassen werden kann.

Chaque année, l’époque de Noël, sept orchestres d’harmonie des écoles secondaires de Chiba (Japon) se réunissent pour donner un concert Ichikawa, ville natale du compositeur. Pour marquer le 20e anniversaire de cet événement, le compositeur avait été prié d’écrire une pièce destinée clore le concert. Dream Cruise est une oeuvre fraîche et pétillante mettant l’honneur l’ensemble des pupitres.

Dream Cruise è stata composta da Satoshi Yagisawa per un concerto che includeva sette orchestre di fiati della sua citt natale. Il risultato è un’opera caratterizzata da un’orchestrazione particolarmente curata con parti del coro che consentono un’esecuzione da parte di un numero importante di musicisti e cantanti. Questa versione è stata rivisitata per essere eseguita senza le parti del coro.

Meine eigene neue Orchesterkomposition hat den Titel ,,SCHREIBEN. Die praktische Aktion des Schreibens, als mechanisches Einwirken per Hand, Stift, Pinsel, auf eine Flache (Papier, Pergament, Stein etc.), ausgelost und gesteuert von einem kommunikativen Bedurfnis und, bei aller Spontaneitat, beherrscht durch die Regeln von Schrift und Sprache, ist fur mich einer der geheimnisvollsten Vorgange im zwischenmenschlichen Alltag, bei dem menschlicher Geist und tote Materie einander begegnen: Gedanken bzw. Gedachtes werden auf einer Flache - Papier, Pergament, Stein - festgehalten, ihr sozusagen anvertraut. Und auf diesem Umweg uber Sprache, Schrift und Gravur begegnen sie dem Geist des lesenden oder entziffernden Mitmenschen. Als Komponist aber frage ich: gibt es auch einen anderen Kausalitatszusammenhang, gibt es z. B. ein ,,autonomes Schreiben, eine sinn-freie Zeichengebung, durch entfesselte, losgelassene Fortbewegung der schreibenden Hand, wo der Schreibende seinem eigenen Schreiben nur noch staunend zusieht? Werden nicht in Japan Bilder, auch ,,abstrakte, geschrieben??? (In einem Underground-Film der 70er-Jahre uber den jungen Mozart sieht sich der Zuschauer versetzt in ein Zimmer eines italienischen Gasthauses, in dem der junge durchreisende Mozart am Tisch eilig die Rezitative einer seiner italienischen Opern zu Papier bringt. Mehr als eine Viertelstunde lang sind wir dabei, horen nicht die entstehende Musik, sondern das nervose Kratzen der Feder auf dem groben Notenpapier in nachmittaglicher Stille - nur der gleichmassige Pendelschlag der Wanduhr ist noch zu horen -, und wir erleben diese sekundare Klangwelt kaum weniger intensiv als nachher andere Horer die dabei stumm entstehende Musik.) Das Orchester in meinem Stuck ,,schreibt. Es fugt Strich zu Strich, versteht sich selbst als eine Art vielfaltiges ,,Schreib-Gerat. Wir als Horer lesen nicht das ,,Geschriebene, aber wir horen den Vorgang des Schreibens, den Bogenstrich, die Bewegung des scharrenden Holzstabs auf Fell oder Tamtam, und wir beobachten dessen Imitation bzw. Transformation durch - zeitweise auch tonlos - sich zu linearen Gestalten verbindende Blasinstrumente als eine Art klingender Schreib-Zeremonie. Es ergibt sich eine Musik, die gelegentlich ihren gedanklichen Ausgangspunkt vergisst und sich als autonome Klang-Situation fortentwickelt und verwandelt, und die schliesslich im hochsten Register eine Art ,,Kantilene be-schreibt. Wer das deutsche Wort ,,Schreiben (engl. ,,to write) schreibt, der schreibt dabei auch unweigerlich das Wort ,,Schrei (engl. ,,shout), und er schreibt auch das Wort ,,reiben (engl. ,,to rub). So emotional der erste Begriff gedacht werden kann, so nuchtern-praktisch ist der zweite. Von beiden Aspekten, samt ihrer Gegensatzlichkeit, ist mein Stuck gepragt. (Helmut Lachenmann, 2003)

Eisler for the Present Age In 2012, the 50th anniversary of Hanns Eisler's death was the occasion at an international symposium for a review of the current Eisler research. The range of topics in this volume of more or less extensively revised symposium papers covers the analysis of various compositional and aesthetic aspects, especially from film music, via the historiographically-orien ted survey of the stages of the composer's biography (in Denmark, USA, Austria, Germany) to the general consideration of Eisler's position in the past and the present. Investigating the history of the Eisler reception in Japan turns out to be real virgin territory.
