Ave Regina coelorum in E♭

Composer: Ko Matsushita

Words from composer

In this piece, I attempted to write a plain and beautiful melody that could be easily performed by the elderly and choral beginners.
The melody sung to the piano introduction, which is like a gush of water (which is a symbol of emotion) filled with abundant divine grace, is an arabesque sonification. Dynamic vertical intervals are placed within the slow movement.
The piece proceeds in a solemn and supple manner, accompanied by changes of color through modulations and changes of beat. The love of the Virgin Mary should be expressed calmly and tenderly.
