This piece was commissioned by Japan Ground Self Defense Force Western Army Band. In the programme note for the premiere the composer wrote: I am always impressed by the expansive earth and sparkling ocean scenery when I come to Kyushu. I have met many local people here and they are all expressive and energetic. I wrote this dramatic piece to convey to the whole of Japan the memory of my experience here, swaying in the west wind. I wrote this, hoping that the Self Defense Force will forge closer ties with the community through this piece. Eastern drama felt in the west wind!

Dieses Stück basiert auf dem Motto eines japanischen Musikfestivals der japanischen Streitkrafte: Unsere Leidenschaft soll in unserem Herzen widerhallen. Der Komponist liess sich ausserdem von der eindrucksvollen Küstenlandschaft in Kyushu, wo das Festival stattfand, inspirieren und vom Wunsch, dass die verschiedenen Militarblasorchester der Region engere Bande knüpfen mogen, leiten. Aus diesen Themen entstand dieses ausdruckvolle, dramatische Werk.

L'oeuvre fut donnee en creation dans le cadre du Festival des Musiques Militaires des Forces armees japonaises 2010, qui s'est tenu sur l'ile de Kyushu. Le theme fut << La passion est en nous >>. Swaying in the West Wind revele une profondeur d'expression poignante. Depuis des siecles, Kyushu s'est ouverte aux cultures occidentales. Et c'est la force de ce souffle occidental, de l'energie des habitants de l'ile que Satoshi Yagisawa depeint dans son oeuvre.

Questo brano e stato commissionato dal Japan Ground Self Defense Force Western Army Band di stanza a Kyushu. Il compositore si e ispirato alla questa regione giapponese dichiarando la bellezza della natura, le grandi distese e il colore dell'Oceano mi hanno profondamente. E questa natura, sono sicuro trasmette le proprie energie agli abitanti di Kyushu, gente molto espressiva ed energia, in perfetta sintonia con la terra in cui vivono.

Strat oscape, by Swiss composer Gauthier Dupertuis, is a colorful and contrasting work for wind orchestra, depicting the view of our earth as seen from the stratosphere. This voyage into the sky is pictural, but also metaphorical, as it is also about distancing from our world. The work is divided into five sections: I Ignition!, II Broadness & The Big Blue, III Stars Shining from Down to Above, IV Destructive Forces, V One and Only Home Five contrasting movements, starting with Ignition in which Gauthier Dupertuis tries to musically convey the majesty of our planet seeing if from the atmosphere, ending with One and Only Hope, as the title say, a message of hope. In between three movements that depict the broadness of the landscapes of our planet (second movement), the fragility of our earth at night with only the stars shining (third movement). But also sheer reality in the fourth movement when the composer translates into music the damage caused toour planet by us human beings. Stratoscape: a fantastic view of Planet Earth!
