This work was premiered by a joint performance of Lux Voluntatis and Combinir di Corista in the memorable first concert of the concert series “Serenade Concert” started by the conductor, Mr. Sohei Miyoshi.
In a world where the storms of peer pressure and antiforeignism are blowing, can choral music, which is performed “with one voice,” escape these evils? In pursuit of an answer to such a question, I chose a poem of Yasuhiro Yotsumoto that describes the pureness of being an “individual”. By Minor Seventh between two parts, I mean, “Live as an individual without getting used to others, but while remaining in an unstable relationship with them”.
The premiere was a beautiful and dedicated performance, with individual prayers rising up from the thick sound.
