This is Yugo Kanno’s first concert work. It was completed in 2011, however this is the first time it’s been released on CD. This recording is from September 13, 2013 at the Suginami Kokaido in Tokyo.

"This concerto is a work that was commissioned by The Japan Philharmonic’s principal trombonist, Kojiro Fujihara. I think even from a global perspective Mr. Fujihara’s rich and expressive playing is rare. When I recieved the offer I was busy working on film music and my schedule was overlapping, but after I thought that it would be Mr. Fujihara performing, I immediately accepted. This concerto consists of three movements and the compositions of each of the movements were inspired by the paintings of the contemporary artist Mirey Hiroki. The message "I want to send flowers all over the world" is put into Mirey Hiroki’s paintings. The paintings (http://imgur.com/a/7fH35) of each movement were drawn abstractly and delicately using only crayon. They are full of bold ideas, bewitching colors, and wriggling energy. I made the concerto sound like a representation of the paintings, like between dreams and reality. Having begun the composition just after the Great East Japan Earthquake, there was an impact in no small way (it made me think deeply about whether we should come face to face with the music from now on). I rewrote this piece numerous times in the production stage, Mr. Fujihara came by the studio many times, and after a long time I finally managed to complete it. I would like to express my appreciation to all of the staff that helped including Mr. Fujihara and all the members of the Japan Philharmonic." – Yugo Kanno
