NOTE

This is a collaborative piece with marimba using only one Japanese drum.

Originally I composed it as an encore piece, so I sought a melody with a joyful rhythm, like a Japanese festival music song (Ohayashi), that would naturally make it hum. 

The piece can be played on any type of Japanese Drum you have, such as the Miya-daiko and Oke-daiko. I composed this piece in the hope that it will be a guiding light to hope.

Composed in June 2011
Premiered: July 10, 2011 Yamagata Mira Food Hall
Performed by Mayumi Sekizawa (marimba) &Kuniharu Hara (Japanese Drum)
