"Airs" was selected as a test piece for 2004 All Japan Band Competition. Since the competition, the piece has been featured in many performances and ceremonies (graduation, etc.). In 2021, I had the opportunity to arrange this piece for solo piano (a short version of about 2:30), and this is the second version of this piece I have arranged since then.
We hope that the flexible ensemble and band version of "Airs" will be performed and appreciated by more and more people.
