Composed in 2006 by Toyama Commercial High School Symphonic Band. Following "The Ruins in Limbo" and "Blueshine Emblem" (Brain Music / Bravo Music), this is the third brass octet series with a modern approach. "Ritual" is not anything specific but it is a ritual that many people can relate to a familiar melody. I chose three main themes. If you use your imagination and create a story, I think the range of performance interpretation will expand. If you further explore the historical background of the world heritage & ancient ruins series (Machu Picchu, Nazca, Cappadocia ...) that I have worked on, it should suggest such imagery. I look forward to hearing unique performances.
